THE LIFE OF BEAUTY
by Joy Harjo
The sung blessing of creation
Led her into the human story.
That was the first beauty.
Next beauty was the sound of her mother’s voice
Rippling the waters beneath the drumming skin
Of her birthing cocoon.
Next beauty the father with kindness in his hands
As he held the newborn against his breathing.
Next beauty the moon through the dark window
It was a rocking horse, a wish.
There were many beauties in this age
For everything was immensely itself:
Green greener than the impossibility of green,
the taste of wind after its slide through dew grass at dawn,
Or language running through a tangle of wordlessness in her mouth.
She ate well of the next beauty.
Next beauty planted itself urgently beneath the warrior shrines.
Next was beauty beaded by her mother and pinned neatly
To hold back her hair.
Then how tendrils of fire longing grew into her, beautiful the flower
Between her legs as she became herself.
Do not forget this beauty she was told.
The story took her far away from beauty. In the tests of her living,
Beauty was often long from the reach of her mind and spirit.
When she forgot beauty, all was brutal.
But beauty always came to lift her up to stand again.
When it was beautiful all around and within,
She knew herself to be corn plant, moon, and sunrise.
Death is beautiful, she sang, as she left this story behind her.
Even her bones, said time.
Were tuned to beauty.
My deceased great grandmother, an Italian immigrant to the US, was surprised that pizza was becoming a big thing here later in her life. She'd lived through a childhood of poverty in northern Italy, as well as the great depression in the US. In both situations, pizza and polenta were simply satisfying foods that could be made extremely cheaply.
When she'd moved here, Italians often faced discrimination, and, for instance, my grandfather (on the other side) refused to eat Italian food and otherwise looked down on Italians.
When I was growing up in the 80s, pizza was already a big thing. There were chain restaurants like Pizza Hut serving up the stuff, as well as an incredible amount of mom-and-pop stores, not to mention the big-name restaurants in places like New Haven.
But what got the nation from looking down on Pizza to having it be a cornerstone of "American Cuisine." that everyone loved?

Overall the event was just a bunch of buzzwords. There were maybe 5 good minutes, mostly in the Q&A during the last 17 minutes or so of the video
