The Twin Cities Indigenous Food Lab is relocating, and more like it are in the works across the United States.
The Wóyute Thipi building (and Šhotá) are just across the Mississippi River from us. The Franklin Ave corridor has long been the home of the largest Indigenous American urban community in the US (and home to AIM) and is now the center of our large East African community as well as a significant Black community. The density of these communities is born from the pain or redlining and failed urbanization but has transformed organically into a bustling mix of incomes, origin stories, and small business owners.
I'm really excited about this vision.
