Here’s what’s happening online and around Toronto this week.

“BLACK FOODIE WEEK provides a voice to those ignored and dismissed for a very long time by the culinary world.”

“What we’re really trying to do is create an appreciation for Black food through the universally-known activity that is the picnic.”

“Supporting and purchasing from Black businesses owners is a great way to put money into that community, but it’s not a fix for racism.”

I received quite a bit of backlash early on for creating a site that celebrates Black perspectives in food and for sharing my story.

February is a short month, but it’s jam-packed with all sorts of inspiring ways to celebrate Black History Month. Move your body, nourish your soul, and free your mind.
