Overview
Here, Groucher replies to J Brent Crosson's comment on her book Congotay! Congotay! A Global History of Caribbean Food. Among others, she says Food memories helped erase the geographical distances caused by dispersion, and they lined the Caribbean crucible with a sense of belonging as the basis for survival and resistance. Ultimately the projection of local identities onto the global map created a culinary diaspora, whose processes continue to have political consequences. We probably can agree on the tasty morsels of that creole experience, from urban Dakar (Senegal) or Cape Coast, Ghana, to Port of Spain, Havana, and New Orleans. Neither should people forget the bitter taste of their unsavory counterparts in the cooking pot of history.
