Gather: A Conversation with Ashanté Reese 

Most people don’t think about this, but food helps create a space for vital dialogue, community and survival. In this fireside chat, Ashanté Reese will discuss her book Gather, unpacking how food spaces function as critical sites of connection and resistance. Pull up a chair as we explore how the stories we tell about what we eat, where we gather, and how we nourish each other can reshape our approach to local media, food equity, and democracy.
