Fun with Food Across the Bay

On this episode of North Gate Radio, five reporters explore how the intersection of food and community shapes the fabric and future of the Bay Area. You’ll hear from an Indigenous chef in Oakland reconnecting with her ancestors through a new cookbook, a legendary restaurateur reflecting on how the Berkeley Free Speech movement inspired her activism, and a job training program in Alameda teaching people how to regenerate the soil. We also visit a "bean-up" potluck at Willard Park and close with a trip to the Mission to uncover the history behind the neighborhood's favorite ziplock cocktail. This is a recording of North Gate Radio that was broadcast live on KALX radio station, 90.7FM.
