Food DNA: Discovering My Roots Through Food
Diversity Equity & Inclusion
In America, our diverse food traditions make the dinner table a place where we can celebrate our differences.
Carla shares stories from her journey across the Southern United States to discover her roots in the American food traditions shaped by the African Diaspora.
Through these stories, Carla illustrates that by understanding how African American contributions are bigger than what they were given credit for, African American students can begin to own these stories and create opportunities for themselves.
