Rhys Powell sat down with Farrell Evans and Inc. Magazine to talk about Red Rabbit, LLC and our Social Justice roots, innovation and dedication to uplift within Black & Brown communities. "We go into the poorest communities in America in a way that uplifts and honors the children and families there, so that the children see themselves as centered and central to the story of ... the school cafeteria. But hopefully that extends out to the story of how they see themselves in society." https://lnkd.in/eaP6Da7g #socialjustice , #foodjustice, #schoolfood , #redrabbit #uplift

Red Rabbit stands at the intersection of nutrition, culture, and empowerment in school cafeterias. Where every dish tells a story. We celebrate the diverse cultures of our students. As a black-led organization, we bring meals that speak to the hearts and heritage of our students. Our chefs, drawn from the same neighborhoods as our kids, create menus that are a culinary celebration of diversity. We redesign dining spaces to be more than just cafeterias - they're stages for cultural expression and community pride. At Red Rabbit, we celebrate our shared history, our shared community, our shared culture. Join us in our movement to uplift children. #RedRabbit #SocialJustice #Education #Nutrition #CommunityEmpowerment #NewYorkCity #culturallyresponsive #schoolfood #SocialJustice #socialimpact #CommunityEmpowerment BrandGenes
