Map-based Explorations of Foods, Drinks, and More Common across the Black Atlantic

This dynamic map is a living work which I’ll continue to build and grow as my knowledge grows.

Thank you, Geneviève Wallen for encouraging me to begin with internal solutions.


Layers

  • It consists of several layers

  • Each layer represents a dish, drink, technique, that connects West African foodways with foodways of the Black Atlantic and beyond.

Icons

  • I’m experimenting with icons, using photos that are as close to the main subject as possible.

  • To see all the layers, click the icon in the top left corner that sits before the map title “Coast to Coast,…”. Toggle on one or multiple layers.

  • Click each icon in a particular location to find out more about it.
