For centuries, the vast majority of people from Africa who left the continent had no choice in the matter. The horrible process of slavery that started in the 1500s also created an African-American and Afro-Caribbean community that has since built its own unique and vibrant identity. African immigrants to other parts of the world had their own stories, too. Whether African immigrants began their journeys as slaves, as refugees, or by choice, find out how connecting food, family, and dining together has bridged the generations, and how those communities have had a lasting impact on their new homes. -- Provided by publisher.
