Soul Nourishment with Junior Mintt

Do you remember the first time you ate a meal and realized how much the chef loved you? Do you remember the first time you didn’t just “cook some food,” but you “prepared a meal”?
Through the power of conversation, music, poetry, and drag performance, together we will discuss the love and community that is created through food. Junior Mintt invites you to celebrate and rejoice in Black Trans Power while interrogating the meaning of soul food as an integral part of her identity. So, while we’re filling our stomachs we’ll also be filling our souls.

A hanging abstract, bioplastic jellyfish illuminates an underwater world, a forest where hybrid amphibians and fairies tend to the changed planet. Caroline questions what the future can look like in a world where nature…
