Lawrence and Rasheem engage in a stimulating conversation that challenges the "food desert" narrative and explores what true food sovereignty might mean for the Black community. They discuss the dangers of relying solely on grocery stores to feed Black communities and why a more comprehensive approach is needed. Drawing on the histories of Black farmers and their legal battle against discrimination, they critique the limitations of food banks and charity and offer a vision for a Black food system that challenges traditional notions of "racial equity."
