What is wholeness? And how do we lift up food narratives that feed our wholeness in ways that nourish deeply and witness us in the fullness of our impact? What can we learn from the storied lineage of Black food changemakers about leading with wholeness, care and joy to transform our shared food culture? These were the questions RFRS Advisory Board Member and creator of Savor & Sage, Stefani Renée Medley, brought to the table in a virtual conversation held in mid April with food scholar activist, Lindsey Lunsford and food writer & host of Afros & Knives, Tiffani Rozier.

Our Around The Table series features informal conversations between RFRS community members with thought leaders, elders, organizers, and friends. Together, we take a deep dive––sinking our teeth into the juicy stories, live questions, and critical conversations buzzing in the food and culture space.
