Until Nov. 3rd, we’ll be sharing stories about how intertwined food and politics are. Francesca Hong, chef and co-owner of Morris Ramen in Madison, WI, is running for local office and sharing what’s at stake for the restaurant industry this November:

By Mother’s Day this year, amid the reckoning over the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, and still figuring out our role as restaurants in the growing social justice revolution, I declared my run for office as a Democrat in Wisconsin’s 76th State Assembly District. The pandemic was a call to action and a call to wake the fuck up.

We need loud-ass information campaigns about the realities of where our food comes from, how it’s priced, and about how farm-to-table is more of a marketing tool than a practice. We need to fight for living wages and comprehensive immigration reform—the restaurant industry literally depends on immigrants for survival, and they need to be recognized and treated as human beings in our policy making.

Why don’t you give your subscriptions for free since you think socialism is so great? Why is nearly every chef pushing their cookbooks for sale are they just trying to support the government or do they want to earn money?

It amazes me how money making capitalist companies are against money making capitalist companies !

Claire left, too.

Wow! This is amazing .Hong4assembly . And, I love the topic.

I mean, why not. It has saturated everything else ,so let's bring it in to the very last unpolitical thing, food. now politics has invaded our food. Thanks for that.

Thank you for the notice. I'll unfollow until after Nov 3 since you've decided to become a political magazine until then. I'm was here for the food. If the change becomes perm. my unfollow and physical unsub will also become perm.

choosing not to pay your workers fairly is politics, you gonna publish an article about that?

Food and politics? Like when you discriminated against your POC employees who cooked food for you?

We'll be updating this weekly as well.

🙏
