But political conversation is encouraged at one restaurant in Pennsylvania. Indeed, it inspires the cuisine. Welcome to Conflict Kitchen, a takeout spot in Pittsburgh that only serves food from countries in conflict with the United States. Created by Jon Rubin and Dawn Weleski, Conflict Kitchen features a rotating menu of food native to countries like Cuba, North Korea (Manduguk, or vegetable dumpling soup) and Iran (Khoresht-e Kadoo, or Persian lamb stew with zucchini and tomatoes on steamed rice). The idea began as an interactive art project that has since become a full-fledged business.

    This transcript was exported on Nov 21, 2019 - view latest version here. Tanya Domi: Hi, this is Tanya Domi. Welcome to the Thought Project, recorded at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, fostering groundbreaking research and scholarship in the arts, social sciences and sciences. In this space we talk with faculty and doctoral students about the big thinking and big ideas generating, cutting edge research, informing New Yorkers and the world. Tanya Domi: Jean Halley is a professor of sociology who teaches at the College of Staten Island and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. She earned her doctorate in sociology at the Graduate Center, and her master's degree in theology at Harvard University. She is author of several books including her latest, Horse Crazy: Girls and the Lives of Horses. Welcome back to the Thought Project Professor Halley. Jean Halley: Thank you. It's great to be here. Tanya Domi: So after one becomes an established scholar and academic, it seems that this new book, Horse Crazy, could be part memoir. And you know, one of the truisms of the Academy is that every book is partially memoir. But this one seems much more so given your intro, talking about how your father bought your first pony for you. Jean Halley: That's right. Tanya Domi: Can you talk about why horses? Why this story? How did your relationship with ponies and horses shape you? Jean Halley: It's a great question. As one of my interviewees said, I feel the same way and that is, I was born and I looked around for the horses.

Firstly, I would like to thank my colleagues, Mya Adams, Craig Cole, and Megan Refice, for their friendship and conversation, without which I would have not pursued the topic of Michael Rakowitz. Further, I would like to thank my thesis chair, Dr. Charissa Terranova, for her criticism and sharp direction. Her ability to give constructive comments not only improved my ability to write but also allowed me to explore ideas in a succinct and direct fashion. Moreover, I express my gratitude for the Nasher Sculpture Center and their curators, Jed Morse, Catherine Craft, and Leigh Arnold, for making my curatorial internship valuable and worthwhile. Installing Rakowitz’s The invisible enemy should not exist exhibition was a treasured experience and aided my thesis greatly. The Nasher has also been kind enough to allow me to present my work on Rakowitz at their 2020 Nasher Symposium which will be accompanied by a forthcoming publication.

  • Pittsburgh Restaurant Serves Cultural Exchange Through Food
    Community restaurant Innovation > Nonprofit & Social Cause > Pittsburgh restaurant serves cultural exchange through food PITTSBURGH RESTAURANT SERVES CULTURAL EXCHANGE THROUGH FOOD NONPROFIT & SOCIAL CAUSE Conflict Kitchen presents food and events from countries the United States is in conflict with, changing focus every three to five months. Currently featuring food from the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, a league of six indigenous nations in upstate New York, Conflict Kitchen uses the shared experience of meals to facilitate cultural exchange, learning and improved understanding between communities. Located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the restaurant runs a catering service, education program and variety of events, performances and discussions related to the culture of the country of focus and its current conflict with the United States. The current menu’s ingredients include heirloom white corn, venison and blueberries, and a variety of options for different diets, including gluten free and vegan dishes. Previous iterations of the restaurant served food from Afghanistan, North Korea, Venezuela, Iran, Cuba and Palestine. Food is a powerful means of cultural exchange, understanding and integration, and projects around the world are working with immigrants and refugees to use their food and knowledge as a means of employment and community building. In New York City, refugees provide an ethnic cuisine delivery service, and in Paris a catering company hires migrant chefs to produce the best cuisine from their homelands. How else could learning exchange help provide new lives for people forced from their homeland? 13th March 2017 Email: info@conflictkitchen.org Website: www.conflictkitchen.org.
