During the month of February we celebrated love, and we celebrated Black history. Join us for a flavor-filled conversation as we invite three guests to share their unique perspectives on food as a love language in Black culture. COVID-19 has changed Gen Z's relationship with cooking--from loaves of banana bread to baked feta pasta, but in the Black community, food has always been center stage. It's how we celebrate, how we remember and how we create long-lasting bonds.
