DeVonn Francis Instagram – A love letter to our Founding Partner @tuna__turner 💌
Dear DeVonn,
We endlessly admire your respect for the communal and generative power of food. We love how you approach and practice hospitality, inclusivity, and food justice — at both individual and systemic levels. Your hostliness – which buoys your every thought, gesture, movement – is unmatched.
We love how you honor your Caribbean lineage, from your mother’s and grandmother’s signature dishes to your father’s restaurant and musical talents. We celebrate how you’ve built and nurtured @yardyworld, creating pro-social, immersive, intentional, representative, and beautiful spaces for gathering, eating, and mirth.
Thank you, especially, for your commitment to the elevation of Black and brown queer narratives – you foster “home” wherever you are.
DeVonn, we’re honored to partner with you.
Love,
Oona | Posted on 31/May/2024 10:10:04
