Episode 13: Dr. Naya Jones on Food Sovereignty and Collective Healing
“The movie has an easier time envisioning the end of the world than the end of capitalism.”
We asked Chris Newman of Sylvanaqua Farms to share his analysis of “Kiss The Ground”, a new documentary that highlights the need for regenerative agriculture to repair our food system. The movie raises some very important points, but also has some troubling omissions and assumptions that we need to further scrutinize.
