Food as Radical Empathy | Alison Alkon | TEDxEmory

[@Michaellopez71]

This is an interesting, and insightful talk. I appreciate the inclusion of the impact of racism on our food system. I would challenge everyone, the speaker included, to not just learn the stories (or in this case share them), but to activately recognize, call out, and utilize our respective privileges to dismantle the system. We can then support a rebuilding that makes space and grants safety for everyone, and is led by those who have been most gravely impacted.

Very proud of you professor! It was a pleasure to have had the opportunity to have taken your course. It most definitely was eye opening!

I was looking for material to help me prepare a sermon and this is one of the gems I found. Great TED talk - thank you.

[@boaks27]

This was aggressively nonsensical. Radical empathy = accept ESG or else !

[@brandonpaynter7956]

Why she bring politics into it?😐

[@wendiesel2606]

You misspelled history

[@eeelizzz]

Because it's all related to politics and policies.

"And yet racism is integral to every aspect of the food system." Give me a break!
