All are invited to attend the webinar, "Agriculture as a Weapon of Domination" sponsored by the Gateway Green Alliance. 







- Webinar at 7:00 p.m. CT, Wednesday, November 3, 2021







The webinar will begin withWes Jacksonexplaining the 10,000-year-old problem of agriculture: cultivation of annual grain crops which compromise soil ecosystems and organic matter. Perennial grain crops and cropping systems can make food-producing ecosystems as resilient as natural ecosystems.



Asa Anpuwill cover what colonialism means to the colonized, especially with regards to food deserts imposed by settler “farmers” on Black people within South Africa and how the Uhuru Movement is challenging this.



Nely Rodriguezwill share how a small group of farmworkers joined with the Fair Food Program to completely change conditions of their labor, from eliminating wage theft to modern-day slavery. US allies can support farmworker rights through the Boycott of Wendy's.



Jaideep Hardikarwill address problems facing small and marginal farmers who comprise 83% of India farm households, commercialization of the countryside due to steady withdrawal of state support, and the growing network of people's collectives and agro-ecological approaches.
