I have a hard time understanding the mentality of ‘soul-food’ being thought of as black food. I think it is more traditionally southern food. I never even knew that greens, fried pork chops and chicken, fried okra, etc. were considered ‘black’ until just recently. These were all foods I and everyone else I knew ate on an everyday basis. It could have something to do with originally the majority of blacks being in the south and everyone (black and white) cooking that kind of food because it is grown here. Maybe that too is why much southern dialect and black dialect sound very familiar with each other.
