(Recorded before Covid-19). Food justice is the notion that everyone should have access to healthful food as well as the opportunity to grow, market and serve it. It’s also the idea behind a rising movement in the US, looking at how federal state and local policies have, or have not served everyone’s food needs. In this episode, Laura talks with farmers, workers, organizers, and seed keepers who seldom get much attention from the mass media. And then she goes to Soul Fire Farm near Albany, New York, and visits with Leah Penniman, author of a groundbreaking book “Farming While Black”, what Penniman calls a “love song for the earth and her peoples”. • In This Episode • Leah Penniman, Co-Director and Farm Manager, Soul Fire Farm, author, Farming While Black: Soul Fire Farm’s Practical Guide to Liberation on the Land • Malaika Gilpin – Co-Director, One Art Community Center • Sonia Galiber and Kirtrina Baxter – Soil Generation • Charlyn Griffith, artist founder, Wholistic Art and Soil Generation • Vanessa García Polanco, Community Sustainability at Michigan State University. • Chris Bolden Newsome, Farm Manager, Bartram’s Community Farm Food Resource Center • Owen Taylor, TrueLove Seeds • Tracy Lerman, Executive Director, Northeast Sustainable Agriculture Working Group • Jenna Hansroth, President, Morgan County Association of Food and FarmsWV • Cristina Martinez, worker, owner and chef of South Philly Barbacoa • Niaz Dorry, executive director of the National Family Farm Coalition • EPISODE RESEARCH NOTES: / thelfshow • DONATE at https://lauraflanders.org/donate/ • SUBSCRIBE to our newsletter: http://www.lauraflanders.org • FOLLOW The Laura Flanders Show • Twitter: @theLFshow • Facebook: @theLFshow • Instagram: @theLFshow • ACCESSIBILITY • This episode is closed captioned. • #farming, #food, #agriculture, #foodjustice, #Cooperative, #UrbanAgriculture, #AgTech, #UrbanFarming, #Sustainability, #FoodPoverty, #foodapartheid, #CommunityGarden, #FoodSystem, #Economy, #Agriculture, #ClimateChange
