Projects
This was part of a greater project called MOFAD City Guides, a collaboration between the Museum of Food & Drink (MOFAD) and Eater. A separate guide was created for each of several immigrant communities throughout the United States. For Haitians in Miami, I was responsible for researching and writing all the content, as well as conducting interviews and serving as a Haitian Creole translator and cultural liaison for the audio and video components of this project. It was a challenging yet enriching experience that I hope brings light to vibrant community.
Since the first Haitian immigrants arrived in 1963, a thriving Haitian community has grown in Miami. From the vibrant murals of Little Haiti to the business districts of North Miami, the story of that community is one of extraordinary resilience and ingenuity - overcoming political strife, natural disasters, racial discrimination and negative stereotyping to build a home in south Florida.
