Book excerpt: At Juneteenth 2021, we celebrate the occasion by commemorating our community's acquisition of a historical landmark founded by former slaves. It is also the perfect time to capture and compile memories from those who were members and/or worshipped at New Zion United Methodist Church. Most of our family members' memories include special occasions, such as the Juneteenth Celebration and the Annual Homecoming / Big Meeting. Since part of our family's culture is to celebrate any and every occasion with an abundance of food, our Juneteenth 2021 Souvenir Book is a combination of the two: EAST TEXAS RECIPES PREPARED THE OLD TIME WAY SERVED WITH PRECIOUS MEMORIES OF THE GOOD OL' DAYS These recipes are unique, as they were written just as they were given. Slaves were not allowed to be educated, so our ancestors were not familiar with standards of measurements. Therefore, they created their own measurements: a pinch of this, a dash of that, and a shake or two of the other. These recipes are recorded the old time way. Many don't have precise measurements, oven temperatures or cooking times. Those of us who learned to cook the old time way will know perfectly well what to do. Enjoy preparing these delicious recipes the old time way, and cherish each precious memory from the good ol' days.

Slaves were not allowed to be educated, so our ancestors were not familiar with standards of measurements. Therefore, they created their own measurements: a pinch of this, a dash of that, and a shake or two of the other. I recall my Aunt Helen preparing pans of homemade biscuits. She learned to cook from her grandmother (Lula Earls Canton 1878-1962), who was the child of former slaves. There was no recipe to record. Ainee used her hand to scoop the right amount shortening, just as I would have done with a measuring cup. She cupped her hand and gently shook into it the right amount of salt and baking powder, just as I would have done with a teaspoon or tablespoon. Mina Ruth Weathered described the elders in this way: "They might not have been able to read or write, but if you showed them something one time, they had it." That is the same way many of us learned to cook. We were shown what our mothers and grandmothers had been shown - one time - and we had it ... just as Our Ancestors had learned throughout the ages. These recipes are recorded the old time way. Many don't have precise measurements, oven temperatures or cooking times. Those of us who learned to cook the old time way will know perfectly well what to do. Enjoy preparing these delicious recipes the old time way, and cherish each precious memory from the good ol' days.

Download or read book Celebrating Our Equality written by Carolyn Quick Tillery and published by Citadel Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this enticing sequel to her bestselling book A Taste of Freedom, Carolyn Quick Tillery celebrates the most mouthwatering African-American recipes ever invented while also paying homage to Howard University, the nation's historic first black 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 equality and justice. Established in 1867 to educate African-Americans freed by the Civil War, Howard University is credited with being at the forefront of the civil rights struggle. Nine of the ten attorneys who argued Brown v. Board of Education, which ended public school segregation, were either Howard University professors or Law School graduates. Most noted among the latter group was Thurgood Marshall, the first African-American to sit on the United States Supreme Court. Howard University's list of notable graduates includes Ralph Bunche, Andrew Young, Vernon Jordan, Stokely Carmichael, James Farmer, and Anna Pauli Murray, along with Zora Neale Hurston, Debbie Allen, and Nobel Laureate Toni Morrison. Among its faculty members are blood bank founder Dr. Charles Drew and Alaine Locke, the first African-American Rhodes Scholar. Howard University has always provided a forum for black Americans to celebrate their culture -- including the unique cooking traditions they have preserved for countless 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; and Buttermilk Pie, to name just a few. Filled with intriguing anecdotes, and accompanied by over fifty vintage photographs and illustrations, Celebrating Our Equality is at once a powerful tribute to a venerable American institution and a salute to the accomplishments made by a people who turned their hardwon freedom into a chance to change the course of history.

Book  My View  Celebrating with Texas  Juneteenth  Federal National Holiday Emancipation Day for African American Slaves  Official  June 21  2021

Download or read book My View Celebrating with Texas Juneteenth Federal National Holiday Emancipation Day for African American Slaves Official June 21 2021 written by Sharon Hunt and published by Xlibris Us. This book was released on 2022-05-19 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of presenting the work is to congratulate the Texas former slaves and their ancestors for their perseverance in celebrating the first unofficial JUNETEENTH holiday in 1866 and their challenge of getting the JUNETEENTH -Emancipation Day made into a state holiday and then a national federal holiday in 2021. For years, the Texas African-Americans have shown the world the true meaning of the JUNETEENTH Celebration. They always had Jublilee celebrations, to show the progress of former slaves with inventions, education, church gatherings and Texas food. As a result of JUNETEENTH, African Americans were able to get education and worship freely, not in hollows or groves or the back of churches, in galleries or behind the pulpits in the white churches, if the slaves were allowed to attend the white churches. In many cases, the slaves were not allowed to read the Bible nor sing or pray. The challenges of the former Texas slaves promoted the establishing of Black churches, Black elementary and high school and the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Blacks were prohibited from going to most white schools until the mid-1900s. Slaves at the time had been in the country for more than 300 hundred years without being allowed to attend school, church or have proper housing or food, but God was our father. Out of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities, African-Americans were able to achieve basic freedom to compete in the world and to later on integrate white colleges and universities. The Emancipation Proclamation was written and issued by President Abraham Lincoln in 1863. All slaves were freed two years later in 1865. Even though the slaves were freed two years after the issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation, the Texas slaves were the last slaves to learn that all slaves were free in 1865. The Texas former slaves were the first to celebrate JUNETEENTH, because the Texas slaves were freed on this date. The Texas former slaves celebrated FIRST JUNETEENTH in 1866.
