“I learned that food offers entree to big picture issues. Like race and class, gender and justice. Through the years, when I tried to tackle those matters head-on, I often lost an audience. But at tables piled high with country ham, buttermilk biscuits and redeye gravy, I've marveled as all have leaned in close to eat, to talk, to listen. I've come to believe that time at table offers our best chance for all---for black and white, rich and poor---to acknowledge our past and celebrate our future in a spirit of reconciliation.

“That particular heat-induced madness that leads one to paint polka dots on every surface of one's house, or compulsively carve angels and scrawl Scripture across their faces. Southerners are loath, even now, to claim the title of artiste outright. It feels uppity. Disconnected, Not of the land. Not part of history.
