Episode Synopsis

What role does food play in social movements? The “People’s Kitchen” at Occupy Wall Street (OWS) at Zuccotti Park, in New York City served 3,000 meals a day for free from October 2011 until a police eviction in November 2011 ended the occupation of the park. Content on The Peoples Kitchen is included in Frederick Douglass Opie’s book Southern Food and Civil Rights (American Palate, 2017).
