Thank you to everyone who attended our Black Lives Matter and the Food System event last week! Panelists Ekundayo, Aramis, Ramon, and Jessica gave their insights and started real discussions about racial justice in the food system. Many issues were addressed like the disconnect between production and ownership of food and the current power structure of the food system. Then possibilities of solving these issues were discussed. Missed the meeting and want to know how to take action on racial justice and the food system?
Join and support groups like Farm Labor Organizing Committee (FLOC), the Ohio Student Association (OSA), and the Ohio Organizing Collaborative among many others. And be sure to attend our next Black Lives Matter and the Food System event on Wednesday November 4th!
Let’s continue the conversation of justice in the food system at our banquet this Saturday in honor of National Food Day!
Join Real Food OSU for a homemade dinner and panel discussion in honor of National Food Day! Join us for a dialogue with students and community members about justice in the food system. The panel, comprised of community members, farmers, academics, and students, will engage the audience in a discussion about the many areas of food justice and how they are all interconnected to our everyday lives, even here in Columbus! In the end, we will conclude by bringing the discussion back to Will Allen’s book and call to action, and talk about how we can join the “good food revolution” here in the OSU community!
