The Food Protection Course trains individuals in food protection practices to ensure the safety of the food served in New York City's food establishments. The NYC Health code requires that supervisors of food service establishments and non-retail food service establishments be certified in food protection. Completion of this course and passing of the final exam satisfies that requirement.
Participants who complete the Food Protection Course and pass the final examination are issued certificates. Final exams are given on the last day of the class. Students passing the exam will be given their certificate that day.
This exploration of one of the most concentrated immigrant communities in Britain combines a fascinating narrative history, an original theoretical analysis of the evolving relationship between progressive left politics and ethnic minorities, and an incisive critique of political multiculturalism. It recounts and analyses the experiences of many of those who took part in over six decades of political history that range over secular nationalism, trade unionism, black radicalism, mainstream local politics, Islamism and the rise and fall of the Respect Coalition. Through this Bengali case study and examples from wider immigrant politics, it traces the development and adoption of the concepts of popular frontism, revolutionary stages theory and identity politics. It demonstrates how these theories and tactics have cut across class-based organisation and acted as an impediment to addressing socio-economic inequality; and it argues for a left materialist alternative.
The Bengali class is a community service provided by a team of dedicated, sincere and loving volunteers who sacrifice personal time to provide tutoring and mentoring to young children on this native Indian language. The classes started in 2020 during the pandemic lockdown, with mostly children of the community members and a couple of teachers. Since then, it has grown in stature, reach and goodwill and currently has 5 teachers teaching more than 35 students, twice a month and across two levels of proficiency (you can read about the levels here). The classes are open to anyone prepared to join online and has participation from different parts of the country. They cover verbal and written skills, and are often sprinkled with wholesome doses of references to the rich culture and heritage of Bengal.

Bengali, with 189 million native speakers, ranks as the seventh most spoken language in the world. It is the official language of Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal. Bengali belongs to the Indo-European language family and, like many other Indian languages, has Sanskrit as its ancestor. Bengali is closely related to Hindi and Punjabi as they use the similar script, common vocabulary derived from Sanskrit, and the same word order. Bengali has a rich literary tradition that dates back to the 12th century. The famous Bengali philosopher and poet Rabindranath Tagore was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1913. The Bengali movie industries known as Tollywood (India) and Dhallywood (Bangladesh) are very popular because they produce good quality movies.
There are 260 million speakers of Hindi, making it the fifth most spoken language in the world. Outside of India, it is spoken by a substantial population in Bangladesh, the U.K., the U.S., and thirteen other nations. Hindi is one of the two official languages of India. Hindi script is similar to that of Bengali and Punjabi. It shares many linguistic features with other Indic languages that have Sanskrit as their common ancestor. It has an old and rich literature that dates back to late Medieval period. Hindi is also the main language of the Bollywood film industry, which produces an astounding number of movies on a variety of topics every year. The Bollywood movie industry has greatly contributed to popularising Hindi around the world.
Punjabi has more than 90 million native speakers around the world and ranks as the tenth most spoken language in the world. It has an old literature that dates back to eleventh century. Punjabi is the language of sacred scriptures of the Sikhs, the official language of the state of Punjab (India), and a language of Sikh and Sufi mysticism and of regional literature among Punjabi Muslims in Pakistan. In Canada, Punjabi is the fourth most spoken language after English, French, and Chinese, while in the U.S. it is spoken by about half a million Punjabi and Sikh immigrants. It shares many linguistic features with other Indic languages that have Sanskrit as their common ancestor. Punjabi is taught at U-M using the Gurmukhi scrip, which has some similarities to Hindi. The Punjabi program at the University of Michigan is the oldest in the U.S.
Sanskrit is the gateway to premodern, and especially pre-Islamic, India. It also served as a language of culture and religion and as a lingua franca in Central, East, and particularly Southeast Asia. It was carried into those regions along with the spread of Hinduism and Buddhism. The position of Sanskrit in Asia can be likened to that of Latin in medieval and early modern Europe. Sanskrit is recognized as one of the official languages of India and every university there has a Sanskrit department. Sanskrit is of great value to the cultural self-definition of Hindu communities that have now spread across the globe. To children of Indian cultural background, Sanskrit opens the door to their classical culture. To academic students of Sanskrit, it is a gateway to the Hindu and Buddhist traditions, and to the pre-modern history of the subcontinent and beyond. Discovery of Sanskrit by the west in 1770s led to the development of Indo-European linguistics and reconstruction of the Indo-European language family and the cultural and religious pre-histories of Europe. Thus, the historical understanding of languages such as English requires some understanding of Sanskrit. Sanskrit is also the ancestor of a number of the South Asian languages taught at the University of Michigan, including Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu.
Tamil is one of the oldest surviving classical languages in the world. It has a documented history dating back over 2000 years. It is a Dravidian language, spoken predominantly in South India, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, and other South Asian countries. Over 76 million people all over the world presently speak Tamil. Evidence indicates the earliest presence of Tamil people in moder-day Tamil Nadu (India) are the megalithic urn burials, dating from around 1500 BCE and onwards. Tamil has continued to grow and evolve through the centuries and still in the process of evolving and adapting, like any living language by being able to produce works for new scientific discoveries and inventions.
In addition to its multiple spoken dialects, Tamil exhibits different forms: a classical literary style modeled on the ancient language (sankattamiḻ), a modern literary and formal style (centamiḻ), and a modern colloquial form (koṭuntamiḻ) These styles shade into each other, forming a stylistic continuum. Tamil is the only Indian language that has the most ancient non-Sanskritic Indian literature.
Urdu, with more than 68 million native speakers, ranks as the eighteenth most spoken language in the world. It is the national language of Pakistan and one of the official languages of six India states. Urdu shares many linguistic features with other Indic languages that have Sanskrit as their ancestor, however, it uses Perso-Arabic script. It has a rich literature including a very popular form of love poetry called Ghazal, devotional and Sufi poetry, and is a main source to study, learn and appreciate Indo-Islamic cultural traditions. Urdu has also been used in Indian movies since the start of the movie industry. Furthermore, Urdu skills are crucial for understanding the political, religious, and social mindset of the Urdu speaking community.
