Food and Immigrant Life: The Role of Food in Forced Immigration, Migrant Labor, and Re-creating Hom

29th Social Research Conference April 18-19, 2013

The conference examined the complex relationships between food and migration. Food scarcity is not only at the root of much human displacement and migration—the food industry also offers immigrants an entry point into the U.S. economic system while simultaneously confining migrants to low wages and poor, if not unsafe, work conditions. At the same time, food allows immigrants to maintain their cultural identity. The conference places issues of immigration and food service work in the context of a broader social justice agenda and explores the cultural role food plays in expressing cultural heritage.

We are also pleased to be collaborating with several organizations external to The New School to offer additional programming around the conference: the China Institute, the Korea Society, El Museo del Barrio, Feet in Two Worlds, and Streetwise New York.

PROGRAM

DAY 1, Thursday, April 18, 2013

Session 1: FOOD SCARCITY AND MIGRATION

Throughout history, lack of food has led to population migration. Today migrant workers play a crucial role in food production, often working under extreme conditions and out of the public eye.

Session 2: KEYNOTE ADDRESS ON THE PLIGHT OF MIGRANT FARM WORKERS

In the United States, the restaurant industry and the agricultural industry, including the increasingly numerous farmers' markets, depend on migrant workers. They perform most of the hard physical work, usually out of view of the consumer, while their position in society is marginal at best.

Moderator: Alexandra Délano, assistant professor of global studies and coordinator, International Center for Migration, Ethnicity, and Citizenship (ICMEC), The New School for Social Research; author, Mexico and Its Diaspora (CUP, 2011)

Your Food Is on Its Way

12:45-2:45 p.m. The Vera List Center for Art and Politics presents a project by artist Annie Shaw on the livelihoods of deliverymen in the food industry. Food delivery is part of the fabric of life in New York City, a service provided by a transient workforce that remains largely invisible to the public it serves. The very statement “Your food is on its way” omits any reference to those delivering the meals. This project exposes the material reality of four deliverymen's physical labor through the tools they use, the routes they take, the money they make, the languages they speak, and the food they consume.

Session 4: RE-CREATING HOME IN THE UNITED STATES

Many immigrants cope with the dislocation and disorientation they experience by using food to re-create a sense of home and identity. This panel explores how migrant cultures produce and reproduce a familiar sense of place in their domestic environment through cooking and other food-related practices.
