What I did and what I learned about my topic, activism, social justice work or civil and human rights work from this fieldwork:

Mabel, Lucy and I watch a documentary called food inc. the things that food Inc is about are processed food, animal life and food waste. the animals in the documentary have been treated so badly, especially the chicken. the chicken have to live in a big barn that is overfilled with other chickens, most of them are overfed and can’t walk because of how fat they get. having this thought in mind people might go and get the organic brands after hearing what happens with your food but getting these organic brands might not be the best for you or your health.

after watching Food Inc I’ve realized even more that food is a privilege. this documentary made me really think deep about how our food is processed to us. I think that people should know about this because the food that you eat could really make a change in your health and the way that you feel.
