SUMMARY:ILP: The Art of Foraging with Alexis Nikole Nelson
DESCRIPTION:Alexis Nikole Nelson is a forager and an outdoor educator using her platforms\, TikTok account alexisnikole and Instagram page blackforager\, to celebrate all the edible plants hiding in plain sight. She peels back historical layers on African American and Indigenous food traditions that have traditionally been repressed and empowers those living in food deserts with greater self- sufficiency. \nNelson received the James Beard Award for “Best Social Media” 2022\, was chosen for the Forbes 30 Under 30 list and as a TikTok Tastemaker\, and was honored as part of Fortune Magazine’s Creator 25 in 2021. Nelson gave a TED Talk in 2022 and in 2023 joined the YouTube channel Crash Course to host a 15-episode botany series. \nAlexis Nikole Nelson will be joined in conversation with Natalie Evans\, a wild edible foods instructor.  \nThis event is made possible by Illinois Libraries Present (ILP)\, a statewide collaboration among public libraries offering premier events. ILP is funded in part by a grant awarded by the Illinois State Library\, a department of the Office of Secretary of State\, using funds provided by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services\, under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA).  \nILP is committed to inclusion and accessibility. To request accommodations\, please email illinoislibrariespresent@gmail.com. \nAdults. Via Zoom. Registration is required.
