"Happy #Juneteenth y’all 🖤 For those who are unaware what Juneteenth is, it marks the date in1865 that the last enslaved people learned of their freedom. Even though the Emancipation Proclamation occurred it wasn’t until TWO years later that ALL were free. . . What other way to celebrate then to make some good food. I’ve joined some amazing talented Black Food creatives from @blackfoodbloggers and we are having a virtual #Juneteenthcookout be sure to check my stories! I’ll be sharing their post 🖤 . . Is it even a party if there is no Jollof😂 A staple in my house for sure. Jollof rice is a delicious one-pot meal cooked in a flavorful stew with tomatoes, peppers, onion, spices, and chicken stock. . . . How are you celebrating Juneteenth today?
