ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
To understand African American foodways, we must first understand The Great Migration. From the 1910’s to the 1970’s, over six million African Americans moved from the rural South to the urban North in one of the largest mass movements of people in American History. On this episode, we hear from history professor Dr Frederick Douglas Opie, and culinary historian Adrian Miller, about how this critical phenomenon not only affected African Americans economically and socially, but also brought the spread of Southern food across the country, influencing regional cuisines for years to come.
