Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

"Sweet potato is something dear to my heart and my daughter enjoys them now, so that's sort of full circle...my grandma is probably smiling down on that, every time I make them for her, and she just eats them up."-Michael
Meet Michael! Michael is active participant at Frog-town and Rondo and the Urban Farm and Garden Alliance in St.Paul Minnesota.
Michael values cultural and local food, and community/family togetherness through food.
For Michael, sweet potato's are a cultural and a yummy treat. It brings him back to memories with his grandmother, who would make this southern dish on occasions.
When Pumpkin pie was introduced to America, African slaves transformed the dessert into something sweeter using sweet potatoes during the time of the middle passage.
"There's a lot of different ways you can cook a sweet potato.. you can bake it, you can make the traditional sweet potatoes.. some people put marsh-mellows and all that in it... sweet potato pie.."
