ICYMI: Check out highlights, conversations from Earth Day at Bartram’s Garden

WURD Radio and ecoWURD, in partnership with Bartram’s Garden, celebrated Earth Day with a special live broadcast hosted by Charles Ellison on April 22 at Bartram’s Garden. The event, “Food, Faith and Violence & the Environment,” featured a conversation on the future of food movements in Black faith communities, as well as a roundtable with local leaders exploring place-based solutions and the intersection of sustainable use of green space and its impact on reducing violence in our communities.

• “Black Food & Faith Matters”: Food and faith have been among the most powerful elements of connections to one another – from the land to bridging the gap in both survival and liberation. In this conversation, local Black faith leaders and farmers discussed the role of faith and spirituality in Black food sovereignty work, ancestral connections between food and faith and food movements’ future in Black faith communities. https://soundcloud.com/onwurd/earth-day-2022-panel-1
