Join NAB and SJP for a night of community and story centered around food sovereignty.

November 18th from 6-9 PM in the UEL!!

Come to learn about diverse food heritages and their links to third world struggles and the right of Indigenous peoples to control the production of culturally appropriate foods—inseparable from the rights to the stewardship of the land that produces that food, the ancestral knowledge, and the people today.
