During Black History Month, we gathered at @mofad for O’Kra and The History That Binds event. In collaboration with @drinkokra , we came together to talk okra, ancestry, diaspora, and the wisdom our ancestors left in the soil and on our plates.
There was laughter. Connections were made. Conversations unfolded that reminded us food is never just food — it’s memory, migration, survival, and joy.
Thank you to @drinkokra , @mofad , and everyone who showed up, supported, and sat in community with us.
🎥 The full conversation is now live on YouTube.

This Black History Month, we’re launching History That Binds 2: Carried Forward. It’s a celebration of the everyday magic of an ingredient that refuses to be put in a box — just like us.
Okra crossed oceans now it lives in our kitchens, our curl routines, our gumbo, our gatherings. It’s history, memory, survival, and creativity all in one.
Over the next few days, we’ll be sharing stories that spotlight the richness, versatility, and cultural legacy of okra across food, beauty, and community — and how it continues to shape us.
Happy Black History Month. Cheers to finding your okra. Link in bio for the full package. 🖤

Ahead of Black History Month, we’re continuing to celebrate okra and the traditions that still feed us today.
To help honor okra and the history and diaspora it binds, we’re sitting down with Anna Cobb, the visionary behind @drinkokra , and Anthony Edwards Jr., Co-founder & CEO of EatOkra, for a conversation on how our ancestors’ wisdom continues to nourish us—literally and figuratively.
We’ll dive into the stories, culture, and heritage connecting our past to today’s wellness movement, alongside light bites and refreshing samples of O’kra Sparkling Water, taking place in @mofad ’s beautiful Brooklyn space.

“Flava pepper. Not pepper flava.”
@chefjasonhoward of @flavapepper chats with @briannenicole18 about why Caribbean cuisine has been misunderstood for too long. It’s not just about the heat—it’s about the FLAVOR that comes first.
In this inspiring 3C conversation, Chef Jason shares his journey from homelessness in Barbados to judging the same culinary competitions he was once told he wasn’t skilled enough to enter. He discusses what “modern Caribbean cuisine” truly means to him, the valuable techniques passed down through generations, and why Caribbean food deserves its place in fine dining.
