#041: Dine Diaspora

from Edible Activist Hosted by Melissa L. Jones

Entrepreneurs Nana, Maame, and Nina are the force behind Dine Diaspora, an agency based in Washington, DC that amplifies the influence of African food culture around the world. As Ghanians, these women embrace their origins and have positioned themselves to create the linkages between those of the diaspora to African food cuisine. In this episode, Nana, Maame, and Nina share a bit of their Ghanian roots and what it was like coming to the states as a youth, their urge to launch Dine Diaspora to create authentic experiences that reflect African food culture, and uncover some of the things that decedents of Africa have gotten away from.
