*Registration for this event not required to access the Zoom lecture


Speaker: Dr. Monica White, author and Associate Professor of Environmental Justice, University of Wisconsin

Join Dr. White as she expands the historical narrative of the Black freedom struggle to embrace the work, roles, and contributions of southern Black farmers. While many view agriculture as a site of oppression and exploitation of Black people, this lecture will reveal agriculture as a site of resistance. You’ll gain a historical foundation that adds meaning and context to the current food justice/sovereignty movements in America.
