Based in Oakland\, our crew and creative practices reflect the diverse histories and backgrounds of the city.  Written in our families’ recipes are the maps of our migrations and stories of our resilience. From this foundation\, we create immersive experiences that honor the shared struggles of our people. We believe in radical hospitality as a strategy to address the urgent social issues of our time. \n\n\n\nAbout  EARTH SEED\n\n\n\nLed by PKC\, EARTH SEED is rooted in Octavia E. Butler’s Parable series and the legacy of the Black Panther Party for Self Defense. By enacting radical hospitality as a survival practice\, we deepen our relationships with BIPOC activists\, artists\, educators\, farmers\, youth\, and elders. EARTH SEED centers a pilgrimage through California from present-day Los Angeles to Mendocino Woodlands from March – June 2023. PKC visited with people and places building models for survival and our collective future. Spanning across the native lands of the Tongva\, Yokut\, Mutsun\, Ohlone\, Miwok and Pomo tribes in California\, each part of the pilgrimage focuses on a different element (Earth\, Fire\, Water\, Air\, Wood). \n\n\n\nAbout Understory\n\n\n\nUnderstory was founded in 2020 by Lily Fahsi-Haskell\, Jenabi Pareja\, Nino Serrano\, and Florencio Esquivel to address the impact the COVID-19 pandemic was having on workers of color within the restaurant industry. With diverse backgrounds as chefs\, artists\, and movement organizers\, they dared to create a collaborative restaurant model that centers worker agency\, access\, inclusion\, and radical community care. Their governance model ensures decisions are made collectively\, cultivating trust\, accountability\, and empowerment. \n\n\n\nAbout Jocelyn Jackson\n\n\n\nJocelyn is a cook\, activist\, and artist working at the intersection of food\, art\, and social justice. Her current projects include Executive Producer of the Life is Living Festival\, JUSTUS Kitchen co-creating healing food experiences for Black women\, and co-founder of People’s Kitchen Collective. Jocelyn is co-lead artist\, co-director\, writer\, and executive producer of PKC’s documentary film project\, EARTH SEED: A People’s Journey of Radical Hospitality. It is a practice in collective survival inspired by Octavia Butler and the Black Panther Party. Jocelyn just completed her Chef-in-Residency at the Museum of the African Diaspora in SF. \n\n\n\n About Sarai Bordeaux\n\n\n\nSarai is a poet\, scholar\, educator\, facilitator\, and model. She holds a MA of Education in Equity and Social Justice focused on liberatory and transformational learning experiences. She has been connected with People’s Kitchen Collective for over ten years\, serving as a conceptual partner\, as well as front of house and logistics for gatherings.  Sarai is the current Poet Laureate of Eureka\, Ca and her most recent publication appears in When We Exhale: An Anthology of Black Women Rooted In Ancestral Medicine from Black Freighter Press. Her work can also be found in Patrice Lumumba: An Anthology or Writers on Black Liberation.  \n\n\n\nAbout Võ Hải\n\n\n\nHải is a queer Việt passionate about traditional food(ways)\, home(land)\, and partum care\, whose family and ancestors are from southern Việt Nam – Mỹ Tho and Chợ Gạo. A guiding proverb for Hải towards community organizing is “Một cây làm chẳng nên non\, ba cây chụm lại nên hòn núi cao”. It translates to one tree provides little strength\, three trees together allow us to reach high mountains – that when we come together\, we can achieve anything and change the world. Hải is a member of the QTViệt Cafe Collective dedicated to Queer and Trans Việt liberation. \n\n\n\nAbout Emory Douglas\n\n\n\nEmory Douglas attended City College of San Francisco where he majored in commercial art. He was the Revolutionary Artist and Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party from February 1967 until the early 1980’s. Douglas’s iconic art and design concepts were staples of the more than 530 Black Panther Newspapers\, communicating the politics of the BPP and the concerns of the community in an easy-to-understand\, immediate visual form. His art was meant to be an inspiring call to oppressed and colonized peoples. Douglas continues to produce political art that captures the power and urgency of global social justice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility\n\n\n\nOakland Museum of California (OMCA) is committed to providing programs that are accessible\, welcoming\, and inclusive of our community.
