SCREENING: Farming While Black

Thu 10/10/2024 • 7:30PM PDT

Hammer Museum

Leah Penniman, co-founder of Soul Fire Farm, reflects on the plight of Black farmers in the United States. From the height of Black-owned farms at 14% in 1910 to less than 2% today. Leah and her Soul Fire Farm cohorts help propel a rising generation finding strength in the deep historical knowledge of African agrarianism—and its potential to save the planet.
