On this episode, I have a conversation with Ozoz Sokoh, culinary anthropologist, food historian, food writer and chef. Ozoz documents her research and recipes on her blog, ‘The Kitchen Butterfly’ and on social media. Our conversation centres around Ozoz’s understanding of food as 'more than eating’. For Ozoz, food is highly political, shaped by history and has been used to maintain and reinforce racial hierarchies. 

To find more information about Ozoz, go to her website kitchenbutterfly.com and follow her on Instagram @kitchenbutterfly and Twitter @kitchnbutterfly 

You can find me, on Instagram reading and reviewing books @mayowa_reads or send me an email (mayowainconversation@gmail.com)!
