Starting the Year Right: New Year Traditions in the Black South

January has not always been about reinvention. In the Black South, New Year traditions were shaped by history, uncertainty, and care. Long before resolutions and goal lists, the New Year was a moment of preparation—marked by food that sustained, homes put in order, and communities entering the year together. In this episode of Beyond the Table, explores the origins and meaning of New Year traditions in the Black South, from the foods prepared on January 1 to the practice of Watch Night and collective reflection. These traditions were not about superstition or spectacle, but about steadiness, continuity, and readiness in the face of an uncertain future. This episode opens the year with a grounded reflection on what it means to begin again—not by erasing the past, but by carrying forward what has endured.

Thank You for Listening: A Reflection on Culture, Memory, and Building Beyond the Table

Hello, I'm Amanda. Welcome to Beyond the Table stories of culture, memory, and meaning. In this short episode, I wanted to pause and say thank you. Beyond the Table launched in October, and this moment is an opportunity to acknowledge the listeners who showed up quietly, consistently, and with care. This episode reflects on what it has meant to build this show, the importance of attention and listening, and the gratitude that comes with creating something rooted in culture, memory, and meaning. This is not a recap, but a moment of appreciation and reflection as the year winds down. Tomorrow, a new bonus episode drops our Soul Food rewatch, covering Season One, Episodes Four and Five. Thank you for listening, and for being part of the early life of this show.

Christmas in the Black South: Food, Faith, and the Quiet Meaning of Home

In this Christmas episode, we explore Christmas in the Black South a tradition shaped by food, faith, memory, and the enduring pull of home. Looking beyond commercial narratives, this episode traces how Christmas became a moment of rest, gathering, and continuity in Black Southern life. From the historical roots of holiday pauses during slavery to the lasting significance of Watch Night services, Southern foodways, and returning home, we examine how culture transformed constraint into tradition. This is a story about kitchens and churches, sound and memory, migration and return, and the quiet meaning of belonging.

Erased: The Life and Murder of Philip DeVine

In December 1993, three people were murdered in Humboldt, Nebraska: Brandon Teena, Lisa Lambert, and Philip DeVine. While Brandon Teena's story became nationally known, Philip DeVine a twenty-two-year-old Black man was nearly erased from public memory. This episode centers Philip DeVine's life, presence, and death, and examines how race, media framing, and popular culture shaped which victims were remembered and which were forgotten. In this episode, we explore: • Who Philip DeVine was and why he was in the home • The events of December 31, 1993 • How the legal system documented all three victims • How Philip was removed from national storytelling • The role of race in victim erasure • Why restoring Philip's name matters today All resources used to build this story are listed in the show notes so you can explore this further.

The Black Mall: A Cultural History of Buying, Belonging, and Becoming

In this episode, we explore the rise and fall of the Black mall one of the most important and overlooked cultural spaces in late twentieth-century America. From segregation-era restrictions to the emergence of malls as Black social hubs in the 1980s and 1990s, this episode traces how Black consumers reshaped retail, identity, and community across generations. We take you through the history of restricted access, postwar suburbanization, the migration of Black families into new commercial spaces, and the cultural energy that made malls feel like community centers, fashion runways, and social worlds. We also look at the economic forces that led to mall decline and what remains culturally, even after the escalators stopped. New episodes of Beyond the Table release every Tuesday.
