What better way to kick off Black History Month than to reclaim health through heritage cuisine?
Oldways'
5th Annual African Heritage & Health Week is February 1 to 7,
offering an educational opportunity to discuss, celebrate, and share
healthful traditional African foods, history, and heritage. Visit the African Heritage & Health Week page for details.
We invite you to celebrate with us
— whether you dine at a traditional African restaurant, home-cook an
African Heritage dish, or reflect on your personal experiences with
traditional African diaspora cuisine. Find us on social media (details
below) and use #EatAfricanHeritage365 to share your AH&H Week
photos, videos, or writings with us.
Need some materials for an inspirational start?
- Check out some of our top African Heritage recipes
- Peruse our collection of images in this Dropbox folder
- Read this Huff Post article, "Community-Led Cooking Classes In African Cuisine Are Helping People Lose Weight, Eat Healthier”, which highlights our A Taste of African Heritage cooking classes
