  • Summary

  • In today's podcast Leah and Jamie discuss the book: Ruin Their Crops on the Ground: The Politics of Food in the United States, from the Trail of Tears to School Lunch. The title says most of what the wide-ranging discussion was about, but we focus on how food was used as a way to subjugate and conquer indigenous cultures and the implications this had on tribes in today's world. We also look at the way food was used to as a way to keep Indigenous Africans under control as slaves in the early U.S. We discuss the way food insecurity still affects these two vulnerable communities even today.

    Finally, we tackle the school lunches - something we all have had experience with. Click the link above to see a Good Reads reviews of this incredible book!
