This week I watched a really great documentary that discussed the dietary and health patterns in communities of color. It covered topics such as the importance of food in culture, stereotypes about dietary choices, institutional racism in the food system, access to food, etc. It’s called The Invisible Vegan and I definitely think it’s a really good resource and recommend it.
