Leah Penniman: Farming While Black
"Through Soul Fire, Leah Penniman has become a leader in the movement to
reverse the effects of historical, systematic exclusion of black and
brown communities from the means of production and consumption of
wholesome food, and to reconnect those communities with a long,
oft-forgotten history of land stewardship. Her book, Farming While
Black, available now from Chelsea Green Publishing, is a how-to for
historically disenfranchised communities to establish sustainable,
equitable, profitable, and dignified relationships with the food they
eat, and the land it comes from."
