In this episode of Black History Buff: Definitions, we explore the meaning of a term that spans continents, cultures, and centuries: the African Diaspora.
Often mentioned in conversations about identity, heritage, and global Black culture, the African Diaspora refers to the communities of people of African descent living outside the African continent. But it is more than geography. It is a story of forced movement, survival, adaptation, and ongoing connection.
This concise episode defines the African Diaspora, providing historical context and cultural relevance in a way that is easy to understand and share. From the transatlantic slave trade to modern-day expressions of Black unity across the globe, this term carries weight, and understanding it helps us better appreciate the diversity and strength of the global Black experience.
This episode is ideal for students, educators, or anyone seeking to build a stronger foundation in Black history, one definition at a time.
Stay curious. Stay proud. Stay blessed.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
