The Soul in Food: The necessity of Black restaurants and chefs in culture and community.
In Boston, the need to support Black-own restaurants is underrated and has impacted the identity, narrative, and belief that our City is even capable of sustaining Black culture. What must change in order for Boston Black-owned restaurants and the soul in our food to be respected, amplified, and holistically supported across communities?
Hear from Black restaurateurs, owners, and operators discuss the challenges and solutions they believe can chart new paths of opportunity for the next generation.
