Awarded ASFS BIPOC Fellowship
I am so happy to share that I am one of three national recipients of the BIPOC Fellowship awarded by the Association for the Study of Food & Society (ASFS)!
My proposal, “Edible Extravagance: The Visual Art of Consumption in the Black Atlantic” was awarded the fellowship and was recently announced at the ASFS Conference 2021 by the board. I am greatly appreciative of ASFS’s support of this work and greatly enjoying the conference with its 1,000 attendees. Wow! The ASFS conference is showcasing so many wonderful panels this year!
