040 / Food Sovereignty & Climate Justice w/ People Over Plastic

One year after a stimulating panel discussion with the climate justice org People Over Plastic, SHACK15 hosted an evening of conversation featuring anti-GMO activist specializing in traditional Hawaiian farming Josh Mori and Bay Area-based Native educator, cultural arts advocate and CEO of The Cultural Conservancy Sara Moncada. They shared their unique perspectives on food sovereignty as a pathway toward climate justice, including indigenous-led solutions to heal and restore the land. The conversation was moderated by People over Plastic Managing Director Yvonne Chen with opening remarks by SHACK15 member Shilpi Chhotray, who is also co-founder and executive director of People over Plastic.
