Black Cake + Jamaica beach scenes

i never celebrate my birthday but i finally got a cake :)

[memoriesfrombooks]

The origin of black cake lies in British plum pudding, but the heart of black cakes lies in the Caribbean. For Benny and Byron Bennett, a black cake is a last gift from their mother Eleanor. A cake and a recording of Eleanor telling her story is their heritage. This book covers a lot social and political ground. Yet, the thread always winds back to Eleanor's story, which is emotional and compelling. Given that this is Charmaine Wilkerson's debut novel, I look forward to what she writes next.

Black Cake premieres today

Black Cake, the new TV series from Marissa Jo Cerar, is out today.

In the late 1960s, a runaway bride named Covey disappears into the surf off the coast of Jamaica and is feared drowned or a fugitive on the run for her husband’s murder. Fifty years later in California, a widow named Eleanor Bennett, loses her battle with cancer, leaving her two estranged children, Byron and Benny, a flash drive that holds previously untold stories of her journey from the Caribbean to America. These stories, narrated by Eleanor, shock her children and challenge everything they thought they knew about their family’s origin.

🐉REVIEW RATING: 🔥🔥🔥🔥/5 New book club tonight! Feeling a bit hesitant - really hoping the two people I know arrive before me. I’m an introvert, but can fake social confidence when necessary. It helps when the social event is organized around a book! Black Cake by Charmaine Wilkerson has been on my TBR since release and my library holds list for months. I’m not a dedicated #readwithjenna follower, but the picks seem to reliably align with my personal reading preferences. So no surprise that I enjoyed this book. Looking forward to discussing the themes of tradition, identity, racism, colorism, and how they intersect. I’m curious how other readers interpreted the inclusion of geology, oceanology, and environmental conservation. Was it to draw parallels between environmental exploitation and human exploitation? “The beauty of a thing justified its plunder.” #blackcake #charmainewilkerson #bookreview #bookquotes #bookstagram #bookclub #bookclubreads https://www.instagram.com/p/CgHiEm8LemF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“These institutions, they don’t want to share power with you [as POC]. You have to fight for that. When they are choosing their next CEO or Director, they are not imagining a face like mine. We, as people of colour, don’t occupy their imaginations they way they do ours. We have to fight hard to fix broken systems.” —#BlackCake (episode 6)
