Food and Empowerment…

37 different crops are growing on a 2-acre farm within Rouge Park, Detroit.

A coalition group called the Detroit Black Community Food Security Network
is hard at work both growing the food- and planting the seeds for social change.

“We’re not interested in plans where the corporate sector comes in and uses the majority of the population as workers. We’re concerned about control and ownership. We want to model not only the growing techniques but model the kind of social and political economic dynamic that we think are appropriate for a city like Detroit” says Malik Yakini, chairman of the network.

In this video, he gives a tour of D-Town Farm, one of Detroit’s biggest urban farms. The mission: to offer fresh produce, and build food security in Detroit’s black community.

      I commend the folks of Detroit taking back the what’s left of the land from the criminal element who have reduced it to dirt and rubble and farming the acreage that now stands in lasting testimony of what every major city can look like in less then a half a generation, when total control falls into the hands of the politicians and progressives. Some food for thought Chicago, LA, Baltimore and countless other city’s who actually think it’s their politicians who make the difference and not the folk who walk those city’s streets and small business owners who maintain them.
