Food Workshop

The food workshop was very informative. It highlighted the important roles food played in history and how hard it is to get access to good health food. When we think about movements in history, like the bus boycott, we don’t think about things like food or money. However, this workshop brought this to light; it highlighted how during the bus boycott a group of women sold home cooked food to find things like transportation. This played an essential role during the bus boycott because it brought in money that helped to continue the boycott. This workshop also shed light on the food injustices growing on today. Many people don’t have access to good healthy food mostly because of money. It becomes a real problem when you can go to a fast food restaurant and get dollar burgers but organic food is expensive. This workshop help expose many of these things and made you really think about it.
