16 WCnewsmagazine Food for the Soul By Carla Batchelor | WCNewsmagazine At least once in your life you have smiled at the smell of some home-cooking, or as it is so often referred to down south, soul food. Now soul food is used to cover a wide variety of foods, but soul food is an ethnic cuisine, food traditionally eaten by African Americans of the southern United States. Many of the various dishes and ingredients included in soul food are also regional fare and comprise a part of white southern U.S. cuisine. Thestyle of cooking originated during slavery, when slaves were generally given only the leftover and undesirable cuts of meat (after the slaveowners had taken the choicest cuts) and had only the vegetables they grew for themselves. After slavery, many, being poor, could afford only off-cuts of meat, along with offal. Farming, hunting, and fishing provided fresh vegetables, fish, and wild game, such as opossum, rabbit, squirrel, and sometimes waterfowl. Soul food has mainly an oral history. Most recipes are handed down through families without writing them down. Poor whites and blacks in the Upon arriving at the Gandhi Institute in Memphis, Tennessee, Western Carolina students stepped into a small house in a residential neighborhood. This _ unlikely Institute is hosted by the Christian Brothers University. The civil rights class then stepped in to find a captivating story often left untold in the classic narrative of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. Gandhi was a citizen of Great Britain and a barrister who came to South Africa for a case. When he got to South Africa he learned that due to apartheid, he was not treated as he was in Britain, strictly because of his race. This educated him to the larger worldwide fight for human rights. Gandhis actions were not to run away from the problem or ignore it, but to take action. However, his form of action was not what many would exil BE oii, ing things) anyone, ng ill of anyone, to 3 well of all. This ill of anyone, to. South ate many of the same dishes, but styles of preparation sometimes varied. According to Soul Food Online, African American soul food generally tends to be spicier than white southern cuisine. Today you will find a wide variety of meat, vegetables, and other items on a menu at a soul food resturant. Some meats include chicken fried steak, chitterlings, catfish, ham hocks, and pigs feet. Some vegetables include black-eyed peas, lima beans, okra, cabbage, and collard greens. Along with the meats and vegetables, you can count on cornbread, a staple of any soul food meal. Across the South on New Years Day families eat soul food, whether they know it or not. The traditional meal of collard greens, black eyed peas, and ham are eaten to welcome in the new year and bring good luck in the upcoming months. The students in the civil rights class tasted a wide variety of soul food in many different locations. Of the four soul food resturants in which the class dined, many agreed Strongs #2 in Selma, Alabama, |Method to the Movement | By Jessie Rhyne | Contributing Writer to think well of ones self. The class was offered the idea that America is a survival of the fittest society where many do not care enough for themselves to do what is best for their well-being. This theory would obviously eliminate affirmation of self and others. Gandhi himself connected the non-violent approach to Christian philosophy, which would later be advantageous for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., in the American struggle for civil rights. As Christ taught in the Sermon on the Mount, it is a Christians duty to turn the other cheek and nowhere else can this be seen so clearly in modern times as in the actions of many peaceful yet active protestors of the Movement. The images of Birmingham with dogs and fire hoses are not easily erased along with the events of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama. These, however, are just a glimpse of violent reactions to non-violent protestors in the American movement. A movement that grew from the passing of the torch of non-violent teaching from Gandhi, to King, to the masses. Non-violence is not simply a passive response to injustice, but it is an often-controversial method of disobedience. The acts of disobedience and the use had the hands down best soul food sampled. The inexpensive food had a taste that is hard to find many places, especially with their famous hush puppies. Even though soul food is a staple today in many parts of the South, the food is typically cooked in fat-back, lard, or vegetable oil, which are all high in fat. Unfortunately, frequent consumption of these ingredients without significant exercise or activity has historically contributed to disproportionately high occurences of obesity, high blood pressure, and sometimes diabetes in southern households, often resulting in a _ shortened _ lifespan. Regardless of the high fat content of this food, it is a staple in many southern households. It was also a highlight of the civil rights class, something that will not be forgotten.

The success of this philosophey leaves a legacy for the continuation of the fight for equality. Gandhi and Dr. King met the same fate; they fell to the bullet of an assassin. Non-violence, according to the Gandhi Institute, challenges the status quo. The Institute in Memphis is still active in spreading non-violent teaching and in fact held a conference in June. They are also beginning a new student program to stop the vicious cycle of violence in society. Do you agree or disagree with the non-violent methods of the Civil Rights Movement?
