    ❤️💚🖤 Black creativity... inspires collaboration. Love this piece by Rabia Gursoy, ’21 “It’s only through a collective effort that any real change to laws, policies and practices can occur. We really saw this through the BLM movement. I felt that the protests were only being depicted as violent and damaging to the country, but this was not the case. Many peaceful protests were held around the city and I wanted to help reshape the way people were viewing the protests. I attended multiple protests as a photographer and felt that this image was the one that portrayed the truth about what the protests were meant to be.”
    春卷 (Spring rolls), another delicacy in the Southern Coast region of China. 吉祥如意 = Good fortune and may all your wishes come true. •••••• 四喜丸子 (Braised pork balls in gravy, or “Joyful Meatball”) 寓人生福、禄、寿、喜四大喜事，取其吉祥之意。= The four days of lie, happiness, longevity and joy. #LunarNewYear #ZheJiangCuisine 📸 @tristal_sbu 🔥🔥🔥
    全家福 (Stewed assorted delicacies) are popular in the Southern Coast region of China. 合家团聚、美满幸福、吉祥如意 = Family reunion, happiness and good prosperity. #LunarNewYear #ZheJiangCuisine 📸 @tristal_sbu
    As we prepare for #LunarNewYear, it’s important to note that (like many other events over the last year) this year’s New Year’s Eve tradition of coming together will be difficult. Thursday (tomorrow) night is, particularly in China, the single most significant event of the year. With the focus on food and coming together, food signifies so much more than just the meal. Each dish is particularly chosen for its representation of good: fortune, prosperity, happiness and more. Pictured above: 济南酥锅, ShanDong Cuisine delicacies from the Northern Coast region of China: Jinan Su Guo. When the Lunar New Year (Spring Festival) is approaching (usually on the night of the twenty-sixth and seventh lunar month of each year), households in Jinan usually put a pot of crispy pot to prepare for the festive season. For many old Jinan people, the taste of the pot is the taste of the New Year.
