2. calling it black food is still racist because there is no such thing you could call it southern food or southern American food but black food no such thing exists as blacks are not one group with a single food preference anymore then whites are

as for James Baldwin he's an idiot whos whole article is founded on a fucking straw man so why do you keep bringing him up
An argument against it being racist could be that calling it black food doesn't imply superiority or inferiority of any particular race at all.
Unless the context was something like "Black food is inferior."
Also it doesn't matter if every single black person likes a type of food or not. Every single dish that we would call Chinese food probably isn't enjoyed by every single one of the millions of Chinese people in the world but it's just describing food that's associated with a specific culture.
Although I would accept the point that there are so many different black cultures and that is what would make calling a certain type of food "Black food." a bit odd. But still even that isn't such a good point because there's lots of different chinese cultures.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
