Eating more delicious sweet potato and considering how "any task becomes sacred when we do it mindfully and with care."
About this Event

Chef Tonii is preparing more delicious sweet potatoes! We've had Sweet Potato Stew. Then there was the salad with sweet potato, pistachios, and mint inspired by Middle Eastern cuisine. Come see what's next!

Inspired by by bell hooks. hooks encourages us to interrogate and transform every aspect of our lives in the pursuit of self-actualization and collective liberation.

We will focus on Chapter 3, Work Makes Life Sweet, where we consider whether our work is in alignment or conflict with our self-recovery."Right Livelihood... embodies self-expression, commitment, mindfulness, and conscious choice."

Sisters of the Yam echoes and responds to the healers in Toni Cade Bambara’s .

"Are you sure, sweetheart, that you want to be well?... Just so’s you’re sure, sweetheart, and ready to be healed, cause wholeness is no trifling matter."

Check out at the Free Library of Philadelphia.
