This morning’s ‘Morning Edition‘ on NPR included a story about the community that has sprung up around a makeshift kitchen outside the Yellow Cab lot in San Francisco. (Janete’s Midnight Cabyard Kitchen)
It’s a fascinating tale about spontaneous connections, sharing culture, and the unexpected mechanisms of diaspora.
One thing the story doesn’t tell us much about: how did it come to be that so many people from a small Brazilian town called Goiânia happen to be cabdrivers in San Francisco?
