Food Vendors

Food vendors are victims of discrimination and/or racism.

Issue

Whole group- Ask students to define stigma and discrimination. Have them share real examples. Explain to students that they will each get a playing card and can not look at or the game won't work. When the game starts they will need to place the card on their forehead, facing out so their peers can look at it. Students will walk around and greet people in their community , but can't communicate verbally. Explain the characteristics of each card and can only respond using body language and facial expressions. Jacks have a deadly, highly communicable diseaseQueens are nasty people who appear nice but cannot betrusted Kings are the wealthiest in the community and willhelp people they deem worthyAll other cards are ordinary citizens Have student's engage in the simulation for 5 minutes. After, have the students reflect on how they felt when their peers greeted them. Ask students to make lines guessing on the card they think they have based on the reactions they received. Have students look at their card and go to the correct line if they didn't guess correctly.

Street vendors are important for Californias food system (infrastructure).

Street vendors are hard working people who contribute to the economy and provide accessible food options in places where it is scarse.

Empowering street vendors gives economic stability to people of color. The majority of street vendors are black and brown women. In supporting them we are supporting a more racially diverse community.

Street vendors are important in local neighborhoods. They are the backbone of communities and economies.

What was it like to be privileged (Kings)? Avoided (Queens and Jacks)? Living near someone with a deadly disease? (citizens)
