Description
Photograph and narratives by participant P09.
“I go to Congolese store. I'll find these.”
“Oh, at the beginning, [finding food I prefer] was not easy. Yeah, it was not easy because I didn't know anybody. I didn't know anybody who I would talk to. So I was eating only American food. But [when others in the community] take me to the store, […] we started to know the people. That's how they started to show us. They took my husband, [saying], ‘If you need the Nagala, [go] here; if you need Sombe, [go] here.’”
