#Repost @barrio_sustainability (@get_repost)・・・Love this story about @sanajaverikadri from @civileats “I can use my business to champion for fellow women of color and queers of color,” she says. “It’s been so wonderful to use the business as a way to collaborate with and hire people that I feel aren’t getting the recognition they deserve.” “With the hope of changing centuries-old trade practices left over from colonial times, Javeri Kadri sources all her turmeric from Kasaraneni Prabhu, and compensates him fairly.” “As the American turmeric craze grew, Javeri Kadri wondered, “Why is turmeric important now, when Gwyneth Paltrow is raving about it? Why was it not important when thousands of Indian immigrants were eating it?” She wanted to know who was benefiting from the spice’s newfound popularity.” https://civileats.com/2018/02/01/a-queer-female-entrepreneur-is-taking-back-turmeric-for-indian-farmers/#BarrioSustainability#BarrioCampesinos#TierraYLibertad#turmeric #foodjustice #supportfarmers #fairtrade #lgbtq #qtpoc #superfood #foodforthought #ethicaleats #immigrantsrightsarehumanrights #woc #womenownedbusinesses #empowercommunities #bethechange #goldenmilk #queer #queerbusiness # #wheredoesmyfoodcomefrom #cupublichealth #cumailman #columbiauniversity -- source link
