Join Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) on Thursday, June 18 from 3:00 - 4:00 PM ET for Juneteenth: Food and Freedom, a talk with James Beard Award–winning writer and culinary historian Michael W. Twitty.
Michael Twitty is THE culinary historian for Juneteenth celebrations. He not only covers the historical significance of Juneteenth but discusses the celebration from a food and freedom lens. Michael is an award-winning author of The Cooking Gene and two times James Beard Award winner for best writing and best book. He has presented to over 1000 organizations around the globe on Black history and foodways. Michael is known for highly informative and entertaining talks – and always manages to weave in current events into his talks to increase the relevancy for participants. You’ll walk away from this talk with more history and a true sense of Black Joy.
This event is hosted as a part of CSPI’s Resource Hub Training Series. We invite organizations and community advocates to join us, as we at CSPI learn alongside our partners and community at large to build power and share knowledge across disciplines on a myriad of social, economic, and environmental justice issues.
