Klancy Miller’s new cookbook highlights Black women’s contributions to the food world through interviews, personal essays, and recipes.
As soon as I saw the illustration of myself, my eyes welled up with tears. I had just received my copy of For the Culture: Phenomenal Black Women and Femmes in Food, and while it was exciting to see my face in print, it was also unfamiliar and jarring. As a journalist, my job is to illuminate stories about other people, so I’m rarely in the position to share my own. Author Klancy Miller had interviewed me two years prior, and I couldn’t remember anything I said.
As I've been talking to other Black women who are featured in the book, we've all commented on how we teared up seeing ourselves and our peers in For the Culture’s pages.“I just think it’s so beautiful,” says Zella Palmer, director and chair of the Ray Charles Program in African-American Material Culture at Dillard University in New Orleans. “I love that it’s not only people who are working today, but it’s also thinking about the pioneers and showing Black women lifting each other up.
