A friend sent me the following quote recently...
If you really want to make a friend, go to someone's house and eat with him... the people who give you their food give you their heart. - Cesar Chavez
I found it wonderful to consider this in light of how we build relationships and community over food and how we defeat discrimination. Think about it...food breaks down walls and lets us connect with people. It is the cure to hatred, racism and the fuel to build neighborhoods and nations.
