What About More Power?" which will also feature Michael Bolden of the San Francisco Chronicle, Krissah Thompson of the The Washington Post and Sharif Durhams (he/him) of the The News & Observer, the Herald-Sun and current NLGJA board president.

Padma Lakshmi says disparaging Indian food isn’t funny. It’s ugly.
By Padma Lakshmi
The chef, author and activist offers analysis on the racist journalistic practices at play in the recent satirical article by Gene Weingarten, saying,"What’s puzzling is that editors and copy editors let his words through. Does The Post still have so little diversity among editors that this mini-screed raised no red flags? The paper issued a correction about the factual errors, but not the root of the issue: the bigotry."
