THE SALVI VEGAN

Norma Pérez is an Afro-Salvadoran choreographer/dance instructor turned vegan business owner of authentic Salvadoran Plant-based cuisine called The Salvi Vegan. After being diagnosed with osteoarthritis on her lower back, her 20+ year career as a choreographer/dance instructor ended but gave birth to her new passion. After learning that meat consumption contributed to her condition plus watching the documentary Earthlings, she became vegan overnight. As the years passed she discovered more of the intersectionalities when it came to veganism and POC & how it affected not just animals but people of color. At the same time, she discovered her ancestry while doing her business and included that aspect in her business as well.

With her business, she hopes to not just bring awareness of veganism, but also how it intersects with her roots & hopefully bring about change in people’s perspective about how it affects all from animals, people of color, and the planet. She aims to create a Salvadoran vegan cookbook, a first of its kind as well as offer cooking classes and create video food content. She believes that knowing your history will allow you to have a foundation strong enough to create content to inspire others.
