Join the Yale Alumni Association and the Yale Club of Washington, DC for a virtual presentation with Yale History Professor Paul Freedman.
- Is there such a thing as American cuisine, or is what we eat an eclectic set of international dishes and trends?
- What historical events and biases have suppressed recognition of minority influence on American cuisine?
- How might the current pandemic affect aspects of American food and how we consume it?
Paul Freedman, author of Ten Restaurants That Changed America and recently American Cuisine and How It Got This Way, will answer these questions and more by looking at the history of American taste and will discuss implications for current day issues.
This program is made possible by the Yale Alumni Association's Redpath Program.
