Podcast: Finding a Place at the Table: Dine Diaspora and Black Women in Food co-founders, Nina Oduro and Maame Boakye
In this episode of Eat.Drink.Think., we’re joined by Nina Oduro and Maame Boakye, co-founders of Dine Diaspora and Black Women in Food, organizations created to celebrate and elevate the rich food traditions and culture of the African diaspora.
Nina and Maame tell us about how recipes and storytelling foster connection both within the African diaspora and beyond. They also highlight the events, awards programs, and initiatives that are bringing more people to the table and amplifying Black women in the food industry. And, of course, they leave us hungry with some of their favorite dishes and recipes!
