Food Activism and Farmworkers
If the goal is a socially just food system, is it enough for consumers to vote with their forks, or for food activism to focus on urban areas and concerns?

She finds the activities of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers particularly instructive and inspiring.\nAlkon and Guthman, eds., The New Food Activism: Opposition, Cooperation, and Collective Action University of California Press, 2017\n\xa0\nThe post Food Activism and Farmworkers appeared first on KPFA.
