Read the article in the Baltimore Sun, about how the students are working to fill a gap in history with the Highlandtown Immigration and Food Project. Through archival research and panel discussions with nonprofit groups’ leaders and business owners, the students created a timeline of Latino politics, history and food culture in Southeast Baltimore neighborhood from the 1980s to the 1990s.

This work is the result of their freshman seminar class: Food, People, and Place in the Americas.
