“This young food activist makes Southern cooking healthy and cool.”
—The New York Times
Since graduating from culinary school, Bryant’s guiding mantra has been “start with the visceral, move to the cerebral, and end at the political.” Because so many are detached from having pleasurable experiences with wholesome, fresh food, Bryant sees empowering people to cook at home and share meals with family and friends as a revolutionary first step towards food justice. When one considers that educating, strategizing, and organizing for many social movements throughout the twentieth century took place in people’s homes, it seems appropriate that the food revolution will find its spark in home kitchens.
