During COVID, Maryam Banikarim posted a photo of a long table full of neighbors sharing a meal and asked a simple question: what if we did this? 500 people showed up. In this episode, Maryam shares how that one potluck grew into The Longest Table, a movement that has touched over 150 communities, and how something as simple as a shared meal can restore our neighborhoods.
