Today we take a small break from the world of birds and listen to the story of my dear friend and birder, Jahquari Greene's, racially motivated and wrongful termination after being physically assaulted at Bar Casa Vale in Portland, OR. His mission is to ensure that this restaurant comes forward with acknowledgement and accountability and that this never happens again to anyone else. Please follow this story and support the #KeepPlating Series: A Paella Protest Pop Up, on IG at @madman_popup and TikTok at @Jahquari. Here at the Always Be Birdin' Podcast, we never shy away from calling out racism and platforming Black voices allowing for a safe space to share their stories while creating the support and community they need to thrive and flourish in a society that has been and is always wanting to see us fail and suffer. We will always offer what we can to those who wish to #applypressure and burn these systems to the ground.
