"All this talk about people starving in the world made us realize what brings people together. We really wanted to create a generous feast where everyone brings something, so that all the people contribute to this parade. It isn't just one group of peopleit's everybody and everybody together. Meeting together feeds the spirit. Since ancient times, the thing that has brought people together is sharing a meal. So, we decided that the theme would be a potluck. Fleming said."
