About this episode
In this episode of The Afrocentric podcast entitled "The Cookout," Josh Boyd joins the hosts to discuss the history behind "The Cookout" and Black Family Reunions. The episode focuses on The Great Migration, which saw more than 6 million African-Americans move from the South to cities in the Northeast and Midwest between 1915 and 1970. The idea of "The Migration Back" during the late 1900s is also explored, when black families and children would migrate back to the South and connect with their heritage and culture. The episode delves into black southern food traditions, the preservation of black southern food traditions, the history of soul food, and its relevance to black cultural identity. Tune in to hear about the rich history behind "The Cookout" and the importance of preserving black southern food traditions
