Environmental Apartheid, pt. 2 - Food Apartheid, explained (cont.)

The Environmental Justice Lab

We are still talking about food apartheid. The fact that some people in some places have more food choices that they need, while others have no good food choices at all. And on this episode, we are focusing on how food apartheid shows itself in the United States. Trust me, it’s not an accident. People are making decisions that keep healthy foods in some neighborhoods and keeps them out of other neighborhoods. It’s not right.

So let’s talk about it on this episode of the Environmental Justice Lab.
