Food Justice from the Local to the Global: Raj Patel and Leah Penniman in Conversation
Bioneers is delighted to be able to bring together two groundbreaking figures in the struggle for an equitable and healthy food system, one working on the global architecture of that system, the other a hands-on farmer and educator exemplifying how solidarity can empower dispossessed communities to reclaim their food sovereignty. Raj Patel is one of the world’s leading experts on sustainable food systems and a tireless activist against neocolonial, extractive agriculture; Leah Penniman is the visionary founder of Soul Fire Farm and author of Farming While Black. In this fascinating conversation, they will explore how, even in this reactionary period, we can build effective movements to regenerate our soils, ecosystems, ancestral cultures, and communities, and nourish our bodies and souls. Moderator TBA.
