Benin, West Africa also known as the “Slave Coast” has had a remarkable impact on the West. A lot of that impact reveals itself through our stomachs, culinary historian Jessica B Harris contends in the Netflix documentary High on the Hog.
This pop-up market is in reverence to Benin’s Dantokpa Market—the largest open air market in West Africa, located in Cotonou, Benin. Let us gather as Africans from across the diaspora as we support our local entrepreneurs and pay homage to the economical importance Tokpa holds for its country.
