On our third episode, we're talking about the Lewiston Band Booster Club Cook Book, compiled in 1955 by members of the Band Booster Club of Lewiston, Maine. This cookbook has some really cool features -- all the recipes, artwork, and even the ads were all done by hand, and we know by whose hand as well! We talk to Kobe Cohen, who was a senior at Lewiston High School in 1955, played saxophone in the band, and was the chairman of the student advertising committee for the cookbook. And for today's recipe segment, Karl boiled a tongue.In this episode we also discuss recipe attribution, and how the name on a dish, and how it's listed, can reveal a lot about a community. We also talk about overlapping communities, and how recipes can travel between them. In the recipe segment, Margaret made the “Upsy-Daisy” Peach Cake contributed to the cookbook by Mrs. Peter Barbalias, and Karl made Marion Cohen's Tongue with Raisin Sauce. Don made Yellow Pea Soup Canadian Style and something called Crabmeat Ping Chow, which sent him down a fascinating rabbit hole that led him to Bruce Lee.Special thanks to our guest Kobe Cohen!For the recipes from today's episode, visit: https://communitycookbook.com/recipesTo see images from today's cookbook and photos of the food we made, visit our Instagram feed or Facebook page.https://www.instagram.com/communitycookbookpodcast/https://www.facebook.com/communitycookbookpodcast---------------------------------This episode is sponsored by the Maine Bicentennial Community Cookbook.---------------------------------Hosts: Margaret Hathaway, Karl Schatz, & Don LindgrenProduced by Karl Schatz & Margaret HathawayEdited by Karl SchatzIntro and Outro music: Vini Vidi Vici, by R.

Amy Bass, a professor of sports studies at Manhattanville College, joins Brian to do a deep dive into the writing and reporting of her book, “One Goal.”Amy talks about how she first learned the story of the Lewiston High School soccer team and what drew her to it as a potential book. She talks about how she developed the trust of the coaching staff and of the Somali refugee community there. Amy describes her reporting style as “hanging out” and discusses what that logistically looks like. She also talks about how she took the results of all that hanging out and turned it into a book. Amy also talks about how sticking to sports means talking about politics, race, gender, etc.Episode LinksAmy BassAmy Bass on TwitterOne Goal by Amy BassThe Resisters by Gish JenTigerbelleCurveballThe Mighty OakThree-Ring CircusSubscribe:Apple PodcastsSpotifyOvercastGoogle PlayRSSSupportSupport Me on Ko-fi
Amy Bass, author of "One Goal: A Coach, a team, and the Game That Brought a Divided Town Together". The town is Lewiston, Maine, and the game is high school soccer. In the early 2000s, Lewiston became home to thousands of refugees from Somalia and the integration was not without friction. The story is about the boys soccer team at Lewiston High School in 2015, which was made up of a majority of Somali students, and their quest for a state title.
Karlee Wilson joins the podcast to talk about the Lewiston girls basketball program. Wilson was just recently hired to coach the Bengals, where she was an all-state guard that was part of state championship runs. After high school, Wilson played at the University of Idaho and was a member of two teams that qualified for the NCAA Tournament. Wilson spent the last two years coaching at Moscow. In the podcast, Wilson shares some of her favorite experiences from her high school and college careers. She also gives insights on what made her a standout free throw shooter and defender. Wilson then talks about what she learned as a new head coach at Moscow and why she is excited to be back at Lewiston.

Today we are joined by Amy Bass, author of the book One Goal: A Coach, A Team, and the Game that Brought a Divided Town Together (Hachette Books, 2018). This is the fourth book for Bass, who is director of the honors program and a professor of history at the College of New Rochelle in New York. One Goal is the story of a high school soccer team in Lewiston, Maine, that helped bring together a racially divided city. Lewiston, overwhelmingly white, became the home base for thousands of Somali refugees. Longtime residents of Lewiston were uncomfortable with people whose language, religion and customs were markedly different. A popular saying in Maine was “You’re always from away,” and yet Lewiston’s citizens were having trouble adjusting to this latest group of immigrants from far away. Enter longtime Lewiston High School soccer coach Mike McGraw, who saw the potential in the young Somalis playing in pickup games in the city. Molding the group into a cohesive unit, McGraw and his squad weathered racial taunts from opponents and a less-than-ringing endorsement from Lewiston’s mayor to bring an elusive soccer state championship to a traditionally hockey-mad area. Bass shows how trust, faith, hard work and some uncanny soccer ability helped bring glory and pride to a town that still struggles with coexistence between very different cultures. Bob D’Angelo is working on his master’s degree in history at Southern New Hampshire University. He earned his bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Florida and spent more than three decades as a sportswriter and sports copy editor, including 28 years on the sports copy desk at The Tampa (Fla.) Tribune. He can be reached at bdangelo57@gmail.com. For more information, visit Bob DAngelo’s Books and Blogs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
