On the latest episode of the Black Yield Podcast, Lee and Ashley are joined by Black Yield Communications Organizer and Archivist Jordan Taylor. Together they discuss the importance of Political Education, how it differs from politics, and how the classroom is not the only place for us to learn.

On this episode of the Black Yield Podcast, Brother Eric returns to chop it up with Lee and Ashley on Cooperative Economics and Collective Works within Food Struggles as well as the importance of collectivism. 

Collectivism as a concept may sound foreign but if you've ever asked your neighbor for sugar, held down your crew, or been a part of a team then you already know it well. Bigger than us however, every piece of our society is connected. The sooner that we recognize that, the better we will be.

Food Desert is a term that we are all familiar with BUT it does not tell the full story of what is happening in our communities. On this episode of the Black Yield Podcast, we brought in BYI Servant Director Eric Jackson to unpack why we instead use the term Food Apartheid and how we see the concept manifest itself in our day to day lives.

Tyra Vareen of the Cherry Hill Food Co-op Steering Committee joins Lee and Ashley to continue the previous episode's conversation regarding our conception and misconceptions around food. 

"You are what you eat" is a phrase that we have been hearing forever however, have you ever thought about the meaning behind that phrase? On Episode 2 of the Black Yield Podcast, Lee & Ashley explore how from the grocery isle to the kitchen table our perception of the food that we eat is not always the full story. 

The wait is over, the Black Yield Podcast is here! Our host Lee and Ashley kick off Episode 1 with a conversation about undoing. What does it mean to undo thought processes that you have held for your whole life? What norms should we challenge? The answers to these questions and a lot more are here in Episode 1.
