  • Chaplain Stories & News
    Chaplain Stories & News Building Bridges—Parishes, Pastors, Prisons January 12, 2017 — Bishop Myron Cotta, Diocese of Sacramento, (at right in photo) took another important step to building a more effective and robust ministry to the incarcerated on Thursday, January 12. He had invited the seven State Prison Chaplains to meet with the pastors and key lay men and women from the parishes closest to the prisons. The meeting was facilitated by Deacon Clyde Davis, a former Prison Chaplain. Clyde has been hired by the California Bishops’ Conference to provide a range of supports for Catholic Chaplains throughout the state. During the meeting, Deacon Clyde said that one of the major problems faced by Prison Chaplains is a sense of isolation and a lack of support from the local parishes. The Sacramento Diocese and Bishop Cotta is seeking to build bridges from local parishes to the Chaplains and the prisons. He asked that each parish assign a “Prison Champion” to serve as a consistent connecting point between the parish and the chaplain. Many creative ideas were shared about how the parishes and the nearby prisons would both benefit from a closer relationship. Chaplin Smolinisky Reflects on a Tamale Christmas at Pelican Bay December 2016 — The first time I did a Christmas celebration with tamales and champurrado in jail or a prison setting, I was a volunteer at Mira Loma, an immigration detention center for Homeland Security. Imelda, another volunteer, brought tamales and champurrado. I thought this was a crazy idea at first, and I saw the hesitation of the Sherriff. When I came to Pelican Bay State Prison, I remember the interview question from the panel, “What makes men attracted to come to your services?” I responded, “Food! Jesus Christ teaches us to gather and eat and drink and when you do this, He is there.” “I haven’t had a homemade tamale in 25 years,” said Jose who had been in the SHU, or isolation unit, for almost two decades.

  • Soup at the Distinguished Table in Mexico City, 1830-1920
    SOUP AT THE DISTINGUISHED TABLE IN MEXICO CITY, 1830-1920 Nanosh Lucas A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2017 Committee: Amílcar Challú, Committee Co-Chair Franciso Cabanillas, Committee Co-Chair Amy Robinson Timothy Messer-Kruse © 2017 Nanosh Jacob Isadore Joshua Lucas All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Amílcar Challú, Committee Co-Chair Francisco Cabanillas, Committee Co-Chair This thesis uses soup discourse as a vehicle to explore dimensions of class and hierarchies of taste in Mexican cookbooks and newspapers from 1830-1920. It contrasts soups with classic European roots, such as sopa de pan (bread soup), with New World soups, such as sopa de tortilla (tortilla soup) and chilaquiles (toasted tortillas in a soupy sauce made from chiles). I adopt a multi-disciplinary approach, combining quantitative methods in the digital humanities with qualitative techniques in history and literature. To produce this analysis, I draw from Pierre Bourdieu’s work on distinction and social capital, Max Weber’s ideas about modernization and rationalization, and Charles Tilly’s notions of categorical inequality. Results demonstrate that soup plays a part in a complex drama of inclusion and exclusion as people socially construct themselves in print and culinary practice. Elites attempted to define respectable soups by what ingredients they used, and how they prepared, served, and consumed soup. Yet, at the same time, certain soups seemed to defy hierarchical categorization, and that is where this story begins. iv To Lisa and Isadora Lucas. Thank you for your sacrifices.
