Celebrating Our Equality

In this enticing sequel to her bestselling book A Taste of Freedom, Carolyn Quick Tillery celebrates the most mouth-watering African-American recipes ever invented while also paying homage to Howard University. Where A Taste of Freedom explored the heroic black struggle for freedom and education, Celebrating our Equality chronicles a newly freed people's continuing battle for quality and justice. Howard University has always provided a forum for black American's to celebrate their culture--including the unique cooking traditions they have preserved for generations. The tantalizing recipes in this book illustrate those proud traditions: dishes such as Black Olive, Jalapeno, and Tomato Mojo; Black-Eyed Pea Salad; Spicy Fried Chicken; Rosemary and Thyme-scented Green Beans to name just a few.
