Corporate Domination is Central to Food Issues
Black Agenda Radio with Nellie Bailey and Glen Ford
14 Oct 2019
🖨️ Print Article

The lack of food outlets in Black neighborhoods is part of the larger reality of labor exploitation and corporate domination, according to Ashante Reese, professor of anthropology at Spelman College and author of “Black Food Geographers: Race, Self-Reliance, and Fund Access in Washington, DC.” “A handful of corporations control nearly all of our food,” said Reese,” and the labor part of the problem “goes wholly unnoticed by most people” concerned with food issues.
