2018 James Beard Foundation Book of the Year | 2018 James Beard Foundation Book Award Winner inWriting | Nominee for the 2018 Hurston/Wright Legacy Award in Nonfiction | #75 on The Root100 2018 A renowned culinary historian offers a fresh perspective on our most divisive cultural issue, race, in this illuminating memoir of Southern cuisine and food culture that traces his ancestry—both black and white—through food, from Africa to America and slavery to freedom. Southern food is integral to the American culinary tradition, yet the question of who "owns" it is one of the most provocative touch points in our ongoing struggles over race. In this unique memoir, culinary historian Michael W. Twitty takes readers to the white-hot center of this fight, tracing the roots of his own family and the charged politics surrounding the origins of soul food, barbecue, and all Southern cuisine. From the tobacco and rice farms of colonial times to plantation kitchens and backbreaking cotton fields, Twitty tells his family story through the foods that enabled his ancestors’ survival across three centuries. He sifts through stories, recipes, genetic tests, and historical documents, and travels from Civil War battlefields in Virginia to synagogues in Alabama to Black-owned organic farms in Georgia. As he takes us through his ancestral culinary history, Twitty suggests that healing may come from embracing the discomfort of the Southern past. Along the way, he reveals a truth that is more than skin deep—the power that food has to bring the kin of the enslaved and their former slaveholders to the table, where they can discover the real America together.

At last! A book that provides the missing link to the ancient knowledge, power and creativity of our ancestors! This book dynamically discloses the early and glorious testimony of the ancients. A Taste of Afrika is an Afrikan Naming Book with pronunciation, meaning and origin of hundreds of Afrikan names. Living in the Sasa of the Zamani Sasa that conceptualizes Afrikan time, this book keeps Afrikan history alive and in front of, as well as behind, the present, by sharing Afrikan proverbs, history, theology and poetry, and giving Afrikan people in the Diaspora the opportunity to reconnect with their ancestral names. Zamani Sasa is loosely translated as "from the past to the present and into the future" because traditional Afrikan people lived in the "now." There was no "past or present tense" in the language. In traditional Afrikan society no one ever died. As long as they were remembered, they remained alive in the Zamani. Long live the Ancestors! Zamani Sasa! Freedom now! Uhuru Sasa!
