We’ll be Right Back features interviews with business owners, thought leaders, civil servants, and individuals from every corner of the service industry. We discuss policy, business strategies, and grassroots initiatives happening across New Orleans, as we all adapt and chart a new path forward post-COVID-19.

Jun 29, 2020

On this week's episode of We'll be Right Back, we are joined by Byron Bradley, chef partner of 2 Brothers 1 Love. Chef Byron talks to us about using culinary as a platform for discussion, as a conduit for changing perceptions about race and beyond. We also discuss the importance and efficacy of these efforts in the context of the Black Lives Matter movement and in the wake of the George Floyd case. Lastly, we explore the future of catering and what permanent changes there may be as a result of Covid-19. 

 

Every episode we like to mention an amazing group or individual contributing to the relief effort. Today, we’d like to highlight and encourage you all to check out the Made in New Orleans Foundation (MiNO). MiNO envisions a New Orleans hospitality industry that leads the world in growing, supporting, and financing the success of people of color. They use a multidisciplinary approach to address and eliminate disparities facing hospitality professionals of color. In response to COVID-19 MiNO is providing immediate emergency financial aid and resources; supporting career and business recovery; and providing online programming to amplify the voices of hospitality professionals of color.
