Episode 7 - Intergenerational Farming & Food Sovereignty with SouthWest Organizing Project (SWOP)
In this episode, Keenan Rhodes chats with filmmaker John Acosta, editor Rob Nakai and Rodrigo Rodriguez, the Food Justice Field Organizer at SouthWest Organizing Project (SWOP). Calling in from Albuquerque, New Mexico, where SWOP is based, they talk about their own backgrounds in film and social justice, and the documentary they collaborated on for SWOP and the Climate Justice Alliance’s Story Snapshots project. The film, which can be seen on CJA’s Story Snapshots website, digs into the history of SWOP, the Black Berets, food justice in New Mexico and today’s Project Feed the Hood, which mentors young people to grow food as a revolutionary act.
