Plus: Bye bye, banana bread.
|
|
Theodora Lee grows her own grapes and turns them into award-winning wines in California, but she faces challenges getting her wine into stores and finding distributors. That's because wine remains a predominantly white industry, and as she told HuffPost, "To date, the wine industry hasn’t fully embraced Black professionals."
But she sees a way forward. In our interview with her this week, she shared: “The wine industry can serve as a catalyst for change. Food and wine is something all people enjoy. We all eat and drink. What better forum to bring people together?”
We couldn't agree more. That's why we've launched a series of intimate interviews with culinary professionals, all from underrepresented communities. It's called Voices in Food, and we hope you'll listen to what they have to say. Read the full interview with Lee to learn how we can build a foundation for lasting change.
We've also got some much-needed updates on big quarantine topics, from banana bread to backyard chickens. Wishing you all a good weekend!
XO, Kristen |
