We are delighted to join 18 Reasons for a day of cooking and reflecting on food justice and food sovereignty.

Chema will speak about the traditional Mesoamerican food system based on the “three sisters” and teach attendees to make delicious vegan tamales. Anchoring the discussion in the different components of the tamales, Nassim will speak about social justice issues that affect people all along the food chain, showing the interconnectedness of these issues and the need for a radical transformation of our food system.

Our workshop will be followed by a shared lunch and an afternoon of discussions on food equity in California and other topics geared to enrich the work of food activists.
