Happy Black History Month! This is an updated revisit of our 2023 conversation on Black British cuisine. Malaika and Harleigh discuss if there is a real Black British culture and if Black British cuisine will ever be as established as Black food in the US? If Black British food doesn't evolve, will it just end up as a commemoration of our parent's home cooking? Join the conversation...
