This Iowa Restaurant Hidden Inside A Historic Barn Is A Must-Do

A dairy barn built in 1925 now serves homemade quiche, soup, and pie instead of housing cows. I love that sentence more than I probably should. The place started as a one-woman operation in 2003. Today it employs about 20 people and still bakes from scratch. Some of the eggs...

‘Jane Elliott Against The World’ Is A Lesson In Unlearning Prejudice / DOC NYC

The 17th edition of DOC NYC includes in its line-up an extraordinary cinematic account that defies racism. Jane Elliott Against The World, directed by Judd Ehrlich, retraces how in the morning following the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. in April 1968, Jane Elliott, then a third-grade teacher in the small town of Riceville, Iowa, devised an exercise that would change the course of her life. Facing an all-white classroom, she divided her pupils according to eye colour, treating one group as superior and the other as inferior. By creating a miniature version of a discriminatory society within the classroom, she wanted her students to experience first-hand the mechanisms and emotional consequences of racism. What began as an unconventional teaching exercise soon became one of the most influential and controversial educational experiments in modern American history, turning an unknown schoolteacher into a national figure and a lifelong activist. Nearly sixty years later, at the age of 92, Jane Elliott remains as outspoken, uncompromising and combative as ever.

Snow Crab And Sushi Pile Up At This Roomy Rochester Buffet Minnesota Seafood Lovers Swear By

Some buffets look plain from the parking lot and stay plain inside. This one in Rochester, Minnesota, plays a different trick. The outside barely hints at what waits beyond the doors, and that surprise is half the fun. Inside, there is a dedicated sushi station, trays of crab legs that vanish fast, a grill where cooks make your custom bowl, and a pond full of big koi fish that kids love to visit.

From a restaurant known for its Friday night fish fries to a steamboat-turned-museum along the Mississippi River, Winona has a long history of places that hold strong memories for the people who experienced them. Some of those places are still familiar landmarks. Others have disappeared, leaving behind old photographs, stories, and a sense of curiosity among younger residents who never had the chance to visit them.

This Historic Minnesota Restaurant Was Once A Stagecoach Stop Before Minnesota Even Became A State

A stone doorstep at one old Minnesota restaurant is worn down by more than a century of footsteps. That groove started forming when stagecoaches still rolled up outside. The first version was a tiny log hotel, just 16 by 24 feet. It opened in 1854, four years before Minnesota was even a state. Mail carriers and weary travelers stopped there on long trips west.
