In celebration of Black History Month, Rdale students will again have the opportunity to try Ms. Rose McGee’s sweet potato comfort pie at lunch on Friday, Feb. 10. In her own words “Sweet potato pie is the ‘sacred dessert’ of Black people, and it has power. Not only does it give us energy, this pie links us to history, it soothes our spirits and renews us for the much-needed work.” Encourage your student to try sweet potato pie and take part in a Black cultural food tradition. #culturalfoodconnections #freshfunfood #Rdale281
