Bryant Terry speaking on "Food Deserts."
Bryant Terry is an amazing person and he speaks on his life work with food justice. He discusses low-income communities and their lack of access to ANY healthy foods. Junk food chains, corner stores, all with no fresh options. The lack of access if making many communities sick.
Access to healthy foods must be available in all neighborhoods.
This is an important social movement and we at Local Matters know that food effects all people, regardless of where you live.
Mr.Terry's cookbooks have also been featured here on the blog....smart and delicious.

LOVE his book. Was a real eye opener!
Oops.. was referring to "Grub" written along with Anna Lappe. Have yet to read, "Vegan Soul Food".
Also, Mark Winne's "Closing the Food Gap" is another excellent read on this subject.
