Branching Out | Niesha Douglas & Marianne LeGreco, authors of “Everybody Eats”

Online

In "Everybody Eats: Communication and the Paths to Food Justice" Marianne LeGreco and Niesha Douglas tell the story of food justice in Greensboro, NC beginning when the city reached the top of the Food Research and Action Center's list of major cities experiencing food hardship.

Greensboro's local food communities chose to act by engaging neighborhood voices, mobilizing creative resources, and sustaining conversations across the local food system. Within three years, Greensboro saw an 8% drop in its food hardship rate and moved from first to fourteenth in FRAC's list.

Remaking the Economy: How to Design Democratic Management

Online

Increasingly, people in movement spaces are demanding to work in democratic workplaces. One model often overlooked—the worker-owned cooperative—offers the benefit of having had to grapple with questions of participation, management, and governance for decades. To explore these issues in depth, this webinar, produced by NPQ in partnership with the Democracy at Work Institute (DAWI), will feature three worker-owners in worker cooperatives, who will discuss both the joys and the challenges of managing workplaces democratically.

Listen Up! Understanding Food Justice and Environmental Justice through Music

Online

Music can be used to understand and communicate about food justice and environmental justice. Communicating through music can strengthen and uplift food and environmental justice practice that is diverse in terms of epistemology, representation, and mode. Music can offer references that may speak to specific and diverse audiences, and opens the door for deeper understandings of inequity and justice in ways that step away from Eurocentric insistence on linear and written communication to teach, exchange knowledge, or debate. This multimedia event brings together four leading and inspiring thinkers, activists, and artists who connect food or environmental justice with music through their work in a panel discussion accompanied by musical samples and audience questions.

Online

In this virtual roundtable, Tracy Williams, nutrition advocate, Shaun Chavis founder of LVNGbook, Jonathan Katz author of Flavors of Diaspora blog, and Kristie Cabrera, occupational therapist & urban farmer will reimagine a food world without ableism.

This event is the second in a two-part event series, entitled "RECIPES FOR ACCESSIBILITY," devoted to the intersection of food and disability.
