Elijah Runningbear Diaz, known as Bear to family and friends, was a 20 year old Indigenous man, of the Barona Band of Mission Indians near San Diego, California. At six years old, he was diagnosed with Type I diabetes, and spent much of his childhood and adolescence in the hospital due to diabetic complications. In August 2015, Bear was suffering from the effects of neuropathy, and his mobility was left impaired due to severe wounds on his feet. He could not walk without crutches, and could not drive on his own... but somehow, on August 29th, 2015, he disappeared from his home, leaving his car in the driveway, just hours after his mother had last spoken to him. None of Bear's belongings have ever been found, and there have never been any solid leads as to his whereabouts.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
