In episode 3 of Rice Revelations, Producer Sasha DuBose (they/she) takes us into the kitchen to make bread. Sasha’s bread baking experience makes the historical knowledge she learned in the previous two episodes become tangible. As they’re in the kitchen convening with the ancestors and saying “chile” more times than anyone could count, she hopes that listeners feel inspired to find themselves in their ancestral foods, whatever that may mean for them.

From the Pantry is a limited series developed by HRN’s Director of Education and Creative Development Taylor Early, focusing on illuminating HRN’s two-fold mission of educating community members in response to a changing world and cultivating the next generation of food media leaders. This series is made up of four narrative arcs researched, scripted, and produced by one of alumni fellows. Each fellow pulled concepts, ideas and conversations from HRN’s archive (the pantry) and created stories that explore the personal significance and broader cultural meaning of what they found.
