Finding the components of a West African holiday meal in Kansas City is not an easy task. There are shops like Wah Gwan or Fannie’s on Troost Avenue, but after that, options begin to thin.

As we enter the third year of the COVID-19 pandemic, Kansas City Today is taking a special look at how people in our community are doing. College sophomore Faith Andrews O'Neal talks about her struggle to learn the ropes at Columbia University, when her entire experience has taken place during a pandemic.
