Happy Juneteenth! ๐
We hope you are able to celebrate this important holiday about the resilience and freedom of Black Americans with your community in joyful, meaningful ways - including some delicious food!
Pilot Light Educator Melissa T. taught about Juneteenth food traditions in her Food Studies AP Geography class, including a screening of Netflix`s "High on the Hog" series and cooking their own Juneteenth-inspired foods as a class: vegan collard greens, black eyed pea salad with hot sauce dressing, and berry salad with pound cake, all pictured here.
Food and cooking allows us to make connections between history, ourselves, and our communities. What foods are important to your celebrations and why?
