Try These Foods at Your Juneteenth Celebration
Juneteenth is the newest federal holiday to join the calendar since Martin Luther King Day was first acknowledged in 1983, and like every American holiday, food is involved! Native Texan, Joi Chevalier, CEO of Cook’s Nook, has recognized Juneteenth her entire life. She explains the foods typically eaten during Juneteenth have roots in the Black American diaspora, and are often eaten picnic-style. Foods and even drinks have symbolic meaning on Juneteenth. #InsideEdition

This comment section is sad, but what is more unfortunate is how inside edition chooses to acknowledge Juneteenth, I feel like this could've been more than fried chicken and collard greens .

I love it. Folks in the south of all colors eat soul food at least once a week. I was the chef for university of the Ozarks and even folks paying for high end catering here choose fried chicken, greens, okra, mac, and cornbread .. I understand and love and respect the symbolism and tradition of soul food to the afam community..but all people know fried chicken is the tastiest dish in the world.. followed by ribs..

African Americans began cooking fried chicken based on the recipes provided by Scottish slaveholders. In time, African American cooks embraced it as part of their own culinary tradition.

all races (usually dependant on social class) have been enslaved at some point. but even after years of black people being enslaved, they had to deal with a long history of oppression that doesn’t exist today. it is not comparable to African tribes enslaving their own members and I don’t know where you got that information from
