Hi y’all! 👋🏽 Who’s hungry? As RFK Jr. and the MAHA movement continue to obsess with perfection, health, and ideal bodies, we turn to a more rooted approach to health. I share more about my new venture, Casa Chavez, and why I’m spending more time in the kitchen. We covered the Black Panther Party for Black History Month and why food is critical to fighting fascism. I hope you enjoy what I had a blast filming! Watch today’s episode on PeerTube or YouTube.
