Every Thursday is Taco Thursday. Myself and Sarah cook rice and chicken and sauce, and heat up tortillas. My objective of taco Thursday was to facilitate communication across cultures and socio-economic classes. Last Thursday we had 25 people over. The crowd was a vast mix of people. Men, Women, a 23 year old highschool student, masters students, doctorate students (a british ethno-musicologist), non-students, heterosexuals and homosexuals, conservatives and liberals, christians and non-christians, Xhosas and Zimbabweans, Africans and Afrikaans, white and black and colored, vegetarians and meat eaters. Interesting combinations of food, cultures and conversations abounded. The objective of Taco Night has reached actualization. I didn't have to ask anyone to leave for being unreceptive to others' opinions. Here is to future taco nights of interesting dialogues.
