Mapping the Nation’s Table: The African American Legacy Foodways Project is a digital interactive map celebrating the legacy of Black foodways by shining a light on African American-owned businesses all over the US.


In honor of Black History Month, the Museum of Food and Drink hosted a series of online programs highlighting themes from our upcoming exhibition, African/American: Making the Nation’s Table, the opening of which has been delayed since March 2020. Six online programs celebrated the contributions of African American chefs, distillers, activists, innovators, and inventors to our nation’s shared culinary identity.
