Do you remember the first time you ate a meal and realized how much the chef loved you? Do you remember the first time you didn’t just “cook some food,” but you “prepared a meal”?

Junior Mintt invites you to celebrate and rejoice in Black Trans Power while interrogating the meaning of soul food as an integral part of her identity. So, while we’re filling our stomachs we’ll also be filling our souls.
