This is Climate Justice, Y'all!, a podcast dedicated to lifting up and centering the climate and environmental justice movement in the South. Climate Justice, Y'all

In this episode, Abigail and Mareshah sit down to talk about the importance of land, food sovereignty, ancestral roots, and more with Carlton Turner. Carlton Turner is the Founder of the Mississippi Center for Cultural Production, also known as Sipp Culture. Sipp Culture is a grassroots organization that prioritizes bringing fresh food in a food apartheid within rural Mississippi. We’re talking about land because in order to stand up for what we stand on, we must recognize the oppression that still influences land ownership and the social structures of southern communities.
