The African-American Culture has always had a unique relationship with food and drink—often connected by their shared experience of enslavement, immigration, systemic oppression, and scrappiness. Okra is one of the ingredients brought from Africa for slaves to cultivate in the Western hemisphere. There is much to learn about the richness of black cuisine, so take some time to learn more about the history of their cuisine and try other traditional recipes from the African-American culture.
