"Black Food is simply magnificent. Mouth-watering, visually stunning and intoxicating, it tells a global story of creativity, endurance and imagination that has endured in the face of dispersion, displacement and oppression. Bryant Terry once again offers us a brilliant window into the ways of food as art, tradition and nourishment. Bringing together activists, thinkers and creatives from the black world, Black Food will endure as recipe books of your grandmothers."
