In this special Holiday episode of Where It's At... Jefferson Hack sits down with Jon Gray, one of today’s most compelling cultural connectors, to discuess food as a tool for storytelling, activism, and care. Jon reflects on his personal journey from the streets to launching Ghetto Gastro, a Bronx-born multidisciplinary culinary collective on a mission to redefine the world's view of food.
Poet Aja Monet recites her piece “Black Power Kitchen,” reframing food as communal ritual and collective power. Jon and Jefferson are joined by special guests Denise Lee (Jons Mum), Dr. Jessica B. Harris, and longtime collaborator A$AP Ferg, their exchanges touching on plant-based philosophy, the significance of African American cultural holiday Kwanzaa, and the generational wisdom that shapes what and how we eat.
