Recommended Article Focusing on Food Justice

Will Allen demands action (on a local and national level), asking for renewed focus on increasing food security for all in his recently published article, "A Good Food Manifesto for America". Well worth the read! For those that don't know Will Allen; he is the director of Growing Power in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and is a recent recipient of a MacArthur Genius Grant. He'll be one of the keynote speakers at the 2009 NOFA Summer Conference, aptly titled "Know Food, Know Freedom".

For more on the food justice movement - check out the Growing Food & Justice for All Initiative and the Community Food Security Coalition's website.
