Today at 6:30 PM EDT!

Let’s talk about the future of our communities.

This Friday, we’re coming together for a conversation about Afro-Veganism, Afro-Futurism, food sovereignty, and what it could look like to build a future where our communities truly thrive.

We know food can change a lot. It can change how we feel, how we care for our families, and how we show up in our communities. That’s part of why this conversation matters so much to us.

Join us LIVE for:

Afro-Veganism is Afro-Futurism: Exploring the Possibility of a Thriving Plant-Based Path Forward in the Midst of Challenging Times

Come listen. Come share. Come imagine with us.

Friday at 6 PM EDT on our YT channel! We’d love to have you there. 🌱🖤

Rest in peace, Country Joe.
What a sad time for him to die.

"Of 'Fixin’-to-Die Rag,' he said, 'The only reason I could write those lyrics was having grown up in a socialist family. My parents were members of the Communist Party when I was born, but later became disenchanted with them. And then they became part of the Progressive Party and the left socialist parties that were around. I read the leftist newspapers and I was familiar with the basic tenets of socialism about the industrial complex that generates war. So I was able to write lyrics about the warmakers that profit from war, and I was able to write a lyric from the point of view of the soldier because I had been in the military.'"
