Are you outraged by EIC Adam Rapoport’s actions and the treatment of Bon Appétit’s bipoc crew?
Here are actionable steps to be taken:
1. SPREAD THE INFORMATION
Sohla El-Waylly has a concise and thorough explanation of the matter at hand. Make sure that any friend you have that has ever watched Bon Appetit, and largely that anyone you can reach out to knows what is happening. Uplift the voices of Priya Krishna, Hawa Hassan, Alex Lau, and other crew members speaking out against their current/former employers.
There is a change.org petition titled Fire Adam Rapoport and Diversify Bon Appetit.
3. REFUSE TO ENGAGE FURTHER WITH BON APPETIT CONTENT UNTIL JUSTICE IS DELIVERED
Unsubscribe from the YouTube channel and the magazine, unfollow official Bon Appetit social media, and stop watching videos and purchasing merchandise. DO feel free to make your voice heard on social media channels and ensure that this issue cannot be ignored.
Slight word of caution - I have seen people call to voice your anger to [email protected]. I was under the impression that this was a good idea at first, but they seem to only have jurisdiction over “publications and digital services…in the UK, Channel Islands and Isle of Man”. Since this issue isn’t about a specific publication, and I honestly don’t know if the New York-based Bon Appetit falls under their jurisdiction, I’m unsure of how effective this would be. I’m going to try to find a better direct line to them if there is one. But perhaps if enough people flooded them this would be the best line. I honestly can’t say.
