    Last year California governor Jerry Brown signed a bill providing $6 million over three years to the Food Is Medicine pilot. The pilot will provide medically tailored meals for 1,000 Medi-Cal patients struggling with either TypeII Diabetes or congestive heart failure.

    The Intersection of Colonization and Food Sovereignty for the Navajo Nation

    Indigenous people in the U.S. are up to 400% more likely to experience food insecurity, according to the USDA. That's by design. A key aspect to colonization has always been to erode food sovereignty, but many tribes are working to reclaim it. That includes the Navajo Nation, which spans three southwestern states. In this episode, Native America Calling reporter (and Toasted Sister podcast host) Andi Murphy takes us to her home reservation to explore what has driven the high rate of food insecurity for so long and what's being done about food sovereignty.
