The beginning…

I was able to get two plots at the local community garden. I attended my first meeting yesterday. We shared Indian food and introduced ourselves.

They are gardeners originally from Los Angeles, Guatemala, El Salvador, Belize, Colorado, Mexico and New Orleans who now live locally in South L.A. Everyone was kind and had different levels of gardening experience.

I’ll be growing plants for workshops, classes, displays and my restoration project. Gives me a spot to experiment with flowers as well. I’m setting up a pepper patch!!

► BIOGRAPHY

Kamari was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, to two over-the-moon parents. Though she only spent her younger years in South Africa, her hometown still holds some of the best memories of her life. From dancing around with her mother in the kitchen, to singing with her father in a hammock. Her parents moved to Denver, CO, due to her father's job in the tech industry. He worked so hard to go back to school in order to provide once Kamari was an announced pregnancy. Little did he know that would uproot his family to America. Though, Kamari was excited as the 5 year old she was, that she was going on a plane and starting anew. Kamari easily rooted in Denver. Her charisma made her lots of friends, and her intellect made her somewhat of a teacher's pet. She was in Honor Society once she hit high school, and her dating life was overtly active. Even with her mother's worry, it was her father telling her mother to let her live her life how she wanted. Dance was all her idea. She excelled in any and every type of dance class she was enrolled in, and she always wanted to learn more. From belly dancing to tap classes, Kamari was absorbing it all like a sponge. It was to the point that she was put into competitive dance courses and competed for all of her high school years. She even went on to tour with a couple pop stars before going off to college. When granted a full ride scholarship to USC, Kamari was ecstatic. Her parents, though excited and proud, also faced some sadness with watching their young girl go off into the world without them. Kamari took up sports medicine as a major in order to appease her parents as she continues to dance on the USC dance team. Nowadays, Kamari is in Denver, CO, between semesters. She works as a dancer still - going on tour with some of the stars when offered. She also works as a dance instructor at the same place she took lessons as a kid; her side gig being that of a front desk receptionist at The Fitness Factory.

She tends to lead people on both in a romantic sense, but also in a friend sense. Everyone thinks they're Kamari's best friend, but little do they know that they aren't.

Nicholas's Family Interview

I interviewed my father, Jose Benavides. He was interviewed on October 14th, 2024. He was born in Los Algadones, Mexicali (within the state of Baja California, a part of Mexico) in 1975, and soon after moved with his family to Tijuana. He lived there carefree with his family for 5 or 6 years before coming to America for a better future. He and his family first lived with another family (8 people total) in a 1-bed 1-bath apartment in East Los Angeles, California for almost a year.  From there, his family would get enough money to move to Cudahy, then South Gate, before eventually moving to Downey once he was in high school. He and his family would stay there to this day, where he now lives, 49 years old, with his wife and 3 kids in a house of his own.

One part of borderland culture experienced by my father was the food he ate growing up. When he lived back in Tijuana, he ate food like Chorizo con huevos (pork with eggs), Chilaquiles (Fried tortillas with salsa), and many other dishes which consisted of beans, rice, eggs, and tortillas. When he first came to live in East LA, he would continue to eat primarily Mexican dishes cooked by his mother. Once he was enrolled in school, however, he would be served American elementary school food like pizza, chicken nuggets, hotdogs, and hamburgers. He mentioned that once he became more independent from his family while in school, he would prefer to get American food with his friends. I feel that this situation paralleled the experience of Roshini Rustomji’s mother in her article “Thanksgiving in a Monsoonless land.” In this article, Rustomji recalls a Thanksgiving in which family friends came over for dinner, which was unusual for the single mother and daughter. When the family friend arrives, he is surprised by the turkey Rustomji’s mother is cooking (alongside traditional parsi-Indian sides) where he exclaims “What, Dinaz Mehta! What is this? A Turkey! Have you forgotten how to cook Parsi food? I came here for pukka, real Parsi food. And what do I see? A turkey! What do you think you are? An American” (Rustomji 329). As mentioned earlier, my father experienced this disconnect between “American” and “Mexican” foods as his friends pulled him away from eating the traditional Mexican food he would eat at home. Similar to the mother’s outburst in the article, where she tells the family friend “Who are you to tell me I can’t love two places? No one, no one can cut boundaries into my heart,” he was able to find a balance between the cultures of the food he eats (Rustomji 330). Today my dad still eats Mexican food, cooking it himself. Despite this, he still eats a lot of American food because his wife and children prefer it. Even if he sometimes wants Mexican food, he is willing to sacrifice it for his family's preferences.

Another thing I asked my father about was the socio-demographics of the places he lived throughout his life. Back when he lived in Tijuana, most people that lived there were Mexican, which makes sense given Baja California doesn’t border other Central/South American countries. He lived with a lot of his family (cousins, uncles and aunts, grand parents) around the city because the poor infrastructure (and poor economy) of the area at the time made it tedious to travel to and from other cities. Once he moved to California (East L.A specifically), he shared an apartment with family friends who had come to America before my father’s family. In this area of urban, low-income housing, my dad was still surrounded by Hispanic families and kids from Mexico and other Central/South American countries who had also immigrated to America. By the time my father was in high school, however, his family had moved to Downey (a suburban city south of Los Angeles). While it had different areas of the city, overall the city was considered middle-class and comprised of mostly “white” people (people of European descent). As he graduated high school and continued to live in Downey, however, he witnessed a slow change to a Hispanic majority within the town, where now around 70% of the city is Hispanic. These different areas all display an idea shown in Rosaldo’s article “The Erosion of Classic Norms.” In this chapter, Rosaldo talks about the new and old way of ethnography. Previously (up until the 1960’s), ethnography as a study believed cultures to be unique and uninfluenced by each other, occurrences of other cultures within other countries being exceptions rather than the rule. The new study of ethnography, however, sees culture as transient between “borders,” that being how things like immigration and the assimilation of ideas lead to cultures intermingling between borders. Given my dad’s immigration from Mexico to the United States, this new approach to ethnography is shown through his experience growing up. When he moved from Mexico to East Los Angeles, he found other immigrants like him who embraced culture from not only their home countries, but that of America. In Downey, despite the ethnicity of the city changing so much, the Hispanic culture did not overpower the European traditions originally in the town, but instead integrated with it.

American Food: A Tapestry of Taste and Tradition

American Food: A Tapestry of Taste and Tradition

American food culture is a vibrant mosaic woven from the threads of history, immigration, and regional diversity. From the hearty comfort foods of the Midwest to the spicy flavors of the Southwest, the culinary landscape of the United States reflects the rich tapestry of its people and their collective experiences. In this exploration of American cuisine, we delve into the flavors, traditions, and innovations that have shaped the nation's culinary identity.

Colonial Roots: Forging a New Culinary Identity

The story of American cuisine begins with the arrival of European settlers in the New World. Faced with unfamiliar ingredients and cooking methods, these early colonists adapted traditional recipes to suit their new surroundings, creating a uniquely American culinary heritage. Corn, beans, and squash – staples of the indigenous diet – were incorporated into dishes like succotash and cornbread, while native game such as turkey and venison became prized ingredients in colonial kitchens. Meanwhile, trade with Europe brought new flavors and ingredients to the table, laying the foundation for the diverse culinary landscape that would emerge in the centuries to come.

Immigrant Influence: A Global Melting Pot

Throughout its history, the United States has been shaped by waves of immigration from around the world, each bringing with it a rich culinary heritage and a treasure trove of flavors. From Italian pasta and Chinese stir-fries to Mexican tacos and Indian curries, immigrant communities have left an indelible mark on American cuisine, enriching it with new ingredients, techniques, and traditions. In cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, these diverse culinary influences converge, creating a melting pot of flavors that reflects the multicultural tapestry of American society.

Regional Diversity: From Sea to Shining Sea

The vast expanse of the United States is home to a diverse array of regional cuisines, each with its own distinctive flavors, ingredients, and traditions. In the South, soulful dishes like barbecue, fried chicken, and collard greens reign supreme, while in the Northeast, seafood takes center stage with dishes like clam chowder, lobster rolls, and steamed clams. In the Midwest, hearty fare like meatloaf, casseroles, and hot dishes warm the soul, while in the West, fresh produce and vibrant flavors are celebrated in dishes like avocado toast, fish tacos, and California rolls. Whether it's a classic dish passed down through generations or a modern interpretation inspired by global flavors, American cuisine is as diverse and dynamic as the landscapes that inspire it.

Modern Trends: From Farm to Table

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in local, sustainable, and artisanal foods, driven by a desire for healthier, more environmentally friendly alternatives to mass-produced, processed foods. Farmers' markets, farm-to-table restaurants, and community-supported agriculture programs have become increasingly popular, connecting consumers with fresh, locally grown produce and supporting small-scale farmers and producers. Similarly, there has been a growing interest in plant-based diets, with more Americans than ever before embracing vegetarian, vegan, and flexitarian lifestyles.

Conclusion: Celebrating the Journey of American Cuisine

In conclusion, American food culture is a celebration of diversity, innovation, and tradition. From its colonial roots to its modern-day incarnation as a global culinary powerhouse, American cuisine reflects the rich tapestry of its people and their collective experiences. Whether it's a classic comfort food dish passed down through generations or a modern interpretation inspired by global flavors, American food has the power to bring people together, spark conversations, and create lasting memories. So let us raise our glasses and toast to the ever-evolving journey of American cuisine – a delicious adventure that knows no bounds.

The Bunion Derby was an eighty-four-day, 3,400-mile race, all on foot from Los Angeles to New York City. The 199 participants included five African Americans, a Jamaican-born Canadian, and perhaps as many as fifteen Latinos, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders, representing about ten percent of the competitors, the rest were white.

The men traveled Route 66 to Chicago and other roads leading to Madison Square Garden.

It was quite risky for African Americans. The men had to travel through the segregated South which had deep-rooted Jim Crow laws. Most whites at that time believed African Americans had no business participating in anything alongside whites.

By the time the derby reached eastern New Mexico, only ninety-six of the original 199 starters remained in the race. Three of the five African American starters including Eddie Gardner of Seattle, Sammy Robinson of Atlantic City, New Jersey, Toby Joseph Cotton, Jr., of Los Angeles–and Afro-Canadian Phillip Granville, of Hamilton. The men had overcome difficult times on the road, none compared to the hellish times of Texas. Route 66 took them straight to Texas where the Ku Klux Klan dominated the state legislature and the city governments of Dallas, Forth Worth, and El Paso.

The men were forced to sleep in a “colored only” tent received death threats and were taunted with racial slurs. The white mob gathered and some rode behind the African American runners, daring them to pass a white man.

As the race continued across the southern states, so did the racism and brutal attacks. The African American communities that knew what was taking place banded together to help the men along the way. They raised money to provide them with a place to sleep and food while passing through. The African American men had the support and protection from the white runners who had bonded with them like brothers.

On May 26, 1928, the fifty-five remaining men of the race made their final lap around the track in Madison Square Garden. Three of the top ten finishers were runners of color, including the $25,000 first prize winner, Andy Payne, a part Cherokee Indian from Oklahoma. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

Best Indian Restaurant In The USA

Indian restaurants in the US are renowned for their wide variety of cuisine. There is great variety within multiple cuisines, including many different regional Indian ones. Some big cities in the United States, such as New York, Washington D.C, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, offer various exciting options, whether you live there or are just visiting, and you should try them out.

There are restaurants with very creative menus, and there are more traditional and authentic eateries. Some eateries combine traditional elements with innovation. Whatever suits your tastes, there is a tonne of options available. The Best Indian Restaurants in the USA are listed below, from cozy chaat joints to upscale tandoori hotspots.

ADDA – NEW YORK:

The most exciting and diverse restaurant scene can be found in New York City, as it is one of the best Indian restaurants in the USA. You can find that country's cuisine and an excellent example of it. Therefore, it stands to reason that Indian cuisine would be famous in New York. That is different, though. It's a cuisine that struggles with NYC. The majority of options are fast-casual bowls inspired by Chipotle, overly complicated and fussy "modern" Indian food, or typical (and blasé) British curry house fare. Adda comes next. The menu also includes refusing in the form of fiery goat brains and gingery chicken livers (tawa kaleji). The meat-heavy menu shines on dishes like tender tandoori poussin and goat biryani. However, vegetarians can look forward to dishes like lotus root kofta, which is made with house-made paneer and arrives floating in an impossible-to-remove-from-your-mouth creamy fenugreek and tomato base. Naan stuffed with cheese is recommended to mop up the sauce.

RASIKA – WASHINGTON:

Rasika has two locations in DC, one each in Penn Quarter and West End, where you can fill up on Modern Indian cuisine. There's a vast selection of tawa (griddle), sign (open barbecue), tandoori, and regional dishes here. They have a delicious dish called tawa baingan, made with eggplant, potatoes, peanuts, and spices. Then, either go traditional with tandoori chicken tikka or contemporary with lobster. Better still? Grab a few glasses because they are renowned for their extensive wine list.

INDIAN ACCENT – NEW YORK:

Indian Accent has restaurants in both New York and New Delhi. Some of the best-tasting Indian food you've likely ever had is served at this upscale restaurant. They strive to experiment with new concepts while still maintaining the traditional components of the dishes they prepare. They offer both vegetarian and meat-based starters and main courses. You can choose a mid-course to eat between your appetizers and main course if you are starving. The ghee roast lamb will change your life, and the colorful meethe chawal will whisk you to Punjabi heaven.

Additionally, you can pick from various sides to go with your meal, and their menu also features an impressive selection of desserts. It is easy to understand why Indian Accent is considered to be among the best Indian restaurants in the USA, given the opulent setting, excellent location, and fantastic menu.

DOSA BY DOSA – CALIFORNIA:

Dosa by Dosa is the confusingly named fast-casual offshoot of Dosa, a pair of fine-dining Indian restaurants in San Francisco. The staff at the restaurant across the bridge offers a more limited menu that includes salads, like a delicious one made with coconut, kale, and mung beans; street wraps, which are made from grilled Rotis stuffed with ingredients like prawns cooked in coconut milk and fresh curry leaves; and rice bowls, where homestyle meals like butternut squash daal are ladled over your choice of rice. (We heartily suggest the traditional South Indian dish lemon rice.) But the menu's highlight is the dosas, savory rice, and lentil crepes. The dosas, savory rice, and lentil crepes are the menu's main attraction and come with various fillings, from the most traditional—a masala potato mixture—to heartier dishes like creamy butter chicken. Whatever you decide, you'll leave with a full stomach and wallet.
