Cooking is laboring for survival, love, and the future. In war times and peace, the food we make feeds the hungry, soothes the unsettled, and heals the wounded. Join us for the first event of our BE/COMING HOME series to make a bowl of Vietnamese chicken pho, as we make sense of hunger and famine–conditions of life that haunt generations of Southeast Asians impacted by the imperialist and civil wars in the 19th and 20th century—in the celebration of life 50 years after the first Southeast Asian refugee resettlement in the U.S. Presentation by Professor Ly Nguyen.
You must RSVP due to limited seating. We will have Chicken Pho “to go” packs from 11-12:30 at the food lab for those who are not able to attend due to limited spaces, only while supplies last. No rain checks, first come first serve.
