While the
industry as a whole has made some progress in regards to sexism,
unfortunately there is still a long ways to go in regards to
achieving true equity. One does not have to look very hard to find
instances of overt sexist language in popular spirits publications
or even demeaning imagery in the marketing of whiskey itself. To
help us explore this issue more in depth, we are joined by Becky
Paskin (spirits writer, co-founder of Our Whisky, and International
Wine & Spirits Competition: Spirits Communicator of the Year for
2021.) So tune in as we examine the issues surrounding this complex
subject and discuss steps that we can take as an industry to move
forward.
