Is there a way you could advance your career with each course and paper project you do? I say absolutely! Choose to research and write about something related to what you're interested in as a career or possible career option. Think about all the papers and projects you need to do for your coursework as undergrads use it as an opportunity to learn more about something that you're interested in and in that process, you'll meet the professor's requirements, the course requirements, and you will advance your understanding of a particular topic. That’s what this episode is all about. Over the past year I have read several great books on writing: The Daily Pressfield; Writing Down The Bones; The Writing Life; The Power of Writing it Down; The Artist Way. The literature inspired me to include exercises and strategies learned into my courses. For example, I incorporated the Fools Cap method for teaching students how to outline an assigned reading and writing assignment. It also works for outlining a research paper, presentation, podcast episode (and a business idea). I share example of going deeper then what you already know from my work on Zora Neale Hurston.

John, Jude, and Proverbs Affirmations, general audience Fall 2024 by Fred Opie

Afro-Hispanic women, known as dulceras, could be seen roaming the streets with freshly made pastries, cookies, cakes, and pies balanced on their heads to sell. Slaveholders would send dulceras out to sell sweets in exchange for the majority of their profits.

Doña Josefa Marmanill, an enslaved Afro-Peruvian cook, whose legacy continues to tantalize our taste buds and inspire our hearts.

Enslaved Brazilian women cooks used vitamin- and fiber-rich ingredients that originated in Africa, like okra and coconut milk, which contributed to the development of the unique and rich Afro-Brazilian cuisine that continues to influence Brazilian food culture to this day.

Brazilian food has strong African influences due to the importation of enslaved Africans starting and ending in the country. This can be seen in their dishes, like vatapá, a seafood gumbo.

Enslaved Afro-Brazilian women sold prepared food, like acarajé in the streets of Brazil. Originally a popular West African dish, Afro-Brazilian have continued to sell acarajé long after slavery was abolished in 1888.
