Moderators from琼斯母亲,旧金山纪事而且,食品坦w88优德老虎机平台克(Food Tank)敦促演讲者思考他们在食品系统中代表性不足或边缘化的玩家的声音中的作用。“做高技能餐厅烹饪的烹饪职业不仅由男人,而且是白人的主导,”汤姆·菲尔波特, Food and Agriculture Correspondent for Mother Jones. “We’ve heard a lot in recent years about the struggles that women go through in the industry: the sexual harassment, being cut off from opportunities, and not getting investment. But we haven’t heard nearly enough about the stories of what people of color go through in the industry.”
作为屡获殊荣的厨师和餐馆老板,并作为食谱作者,灵魂食品专家和电视主持人,荷兰uses her红糖厨房to help women of color access opportunities without barriers of discrimination. “There are a lot of young women and a lot of young women of color who have never seen women leading empires. [As a chef] I need to create opportunities for these people by growing them and helping them develop,” says Holland.
In addition to making opportunities for others, Moderator Justin Phillips, staff writer at the旧金山纪事,注意到认识到人们如何谈论正义,获得和公平很重要。“我们抛出诸如食品正义和食物的词。但是我们可以将它们扔到它们变得空心或毫无意义的地步。”菲利普斯说。根据盖蒙·琼斯(Gaymon-Jones)的说法,省略特定语言识别发挥力量,受他人力量的玩家,提高股权的方式可能会损害食品系统的变化。

Those farmers who are making the compost, practicing regenerative agriculture, and addressing climate,” says Waters. Convinced that the best food is sustainably and locally grown, Waters sources ingredients directly from farmers forChez Panisseand for schools. Without a middleman, the profits go directly to the farmers.
With this support, farmers can continue to produce sustainable and ethically-raised food for everyone in their communities. “We live out here in the land of industrial and commodity farming. It is [a different] way of producing and making this food that brings尼曼牧场威利斯(Willis)说。
