In a junior American Studies seminar entitled "Community Engagement," I worked alongside two peers in collaboration with Urban Greens (a local, up-and-coming food cooperative). We worked under the organization's guidance to assist in creating a cultural food survey. A highlight of the endevour was meeting with South American and West African immigrants at Providence's Genesis Center. There, we were able to conduct our survey and look into the demand for culturally-appropriate foods to help make Providence a place of cross-cultural access. The project, while small in scale, provided an opportunity for Brown University students like myself to leave college hill and meet fellow residents. The project illuminated a shared desire to eat food that aligns with one's identity, while recognizing the common need for belonging and visibility.
