Brilliant book with beautiful and much-needed stories to be told about people of color in agriculture. ( )
  AAPremlall | Jul 23, 2023 |
The Color of Food is a vibrant, gorgeous looking book of stories told by farmers of color who are changing the landscape of farming and homesteading all over the world. I loved reading about the creativity and resilience of farmers of color as they work in community to fight exploitation, marginalization and bring good food to families and communities of color. I was amazed and heartened by the deep political organizing that is being done against corporate greed and that farmers and communities are finally being recognized as critical players as we continue to learn about race and class and culture and our food source. Thank you Edelweiss for giving me the opportunity to review this book for an honest opinion. ( )
