    Sharing this incredible resource featuring colleagues of mine:

    “One of the obstacles in creating food sovereignty is the savior complex rooted in the idea that those most impacted don’t know what they are doing and that someone outside of our communities need to guide us.”

    People of Color have been marginalized in regards to the production and consumption of, and access to, healthy foods and as a result have far higher rates of food insecurity and of negative health impacts that result from poor nutrition. Three community leaders discuss how they are working to break through the impacts of colonization to develop a community-owned food system that is equitable, profitable and built on respectful relationships.
