Event Details

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 the ongoing struggles over race and appropriation.

Join this book launch to find out how 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.
