Food & Culture in Humboldt ParkHard Cover Youth Interns explore the connection between food and culture in the African American and Puerto Ricans communities in Humboldt Park by learning some home cooking, and visiting neighborhood establishments, Turkey Shack and La Palma.
Food JusticeRace, inequity, urban farming and the desire for healthier foods serve as the backdrop for
this short and informative piece created by SPNN's team of summer interns. Motivated
by their visit to Eureka Recycling in Northeast Minneapolis these four young women
producers asked questions about the importance of food and food justice. During
their visit to Eureka, they learned about the non-profit's community engagement and
commitment to zero-waste and local foods. This prompted a discussion about local
farmers and farmers markets and the people they see growing and selling these foods.
Why did none of them look like them (three of the four young women who made the
documentary were African-American)? After much exploring, they found some who did and the reasons why there aren't more.

ARTISTS' STATEMENT: Our documentary is about Howard Connelly and the sculptures that he creates. It is also about the Takoma Art Project and the sculptures that Howard, and the other artists send in each year. This year the theme was Please Sit On the Art. We had a great time in Takoma Park, and at Howards Studio. Our documentary is amazing.
