Abstract

This text is a preliminary approach to Afro-Mexican cuisine as a field of knowledge; it was carried out based on a bibliographic review of academic and research materials, and is not the result of fieldwork. The objective is to investigate the role of Afro-Mexican women in shaping Mexican cuisine, thinking about how the politics of memory are reconfigured to insert the culinary heritage of peoples descended from Africans into our present, understood as a place of memory fundamental in the representations and resistance of African peoples.
