The Future of Food Leadership: Preeti Mistry

Preeti Mistry, chef-activist best known for their restaurant Juhu Beach Club, has been fighting injustice since a kid named Aaron pushed them too far in middle school—and they pushed back. As the food industry cracks under the strain of COVID and reimagines ways to confront systemic racism, Preeti offers a holistic view of the way forward. They share refreshing and realistic views on gentrification, reflections about their own role in pay inequity, thoughts on approaching intersectionality as a minority, and many more insights rooted in visions for a more equitable world.
