What I did and what I learned about my topic, activism, social justice work or civil and human rights work from this fieldwork?[:: :
On Jan 26, Atticus, Bayo and I met with Deborah Remelli from the Ceres Community Project over Google Meet. Deborah works as a the Director of Development and Community Affairs at the Ceres Community Project. The Ceres Community Project’s goal is to “Advocate for local, state and federal policies that increase access to healthy food for all people. ” This is really important to our project because she told us how there are a lot of people without access to healthy and sustainable food and it is becoming a big problem across America.
My personal reaction to this interview was that it had lots of information. We learned about how a lot of people needed support when it came to healthy and nutritious food. The Ceres Community Project is doing a really good job to help with that and I think that this can really help America with this issue.
