Keenan Anderson—a 31-year-old high school teacher & father—stopped LA police for help after an accident. They instead cuffed him, pinned him, & tased him repeatedly as he begged them to stop.

Keenan died of cardiac arrest from excessive tasing.

His crime—asking police for help.

The meat industry, and how we’re supposed to deal with the meat industry, can feel overwhelming and distant.

In Raw Deal, @chloesorvino maps out an industry that is both wildly profitable and untouchable, while tapping in experts to weigh in on the industry’s biggest challengers

[Civil Eats @CivilEats]

Writer @LindseyMAllen_ spoke w/ @chloesorvino recently about why she thinks more consumers should be paying more attention to consolidation in the meat industry, the investor rush to fund alternative proteins, & the starting points for systemic change. https://t.co/LHi24bfrmZ

"As reflective as it is revealing: Its real power lies in the connections it draws between the machinations of the meatpacking companies and the increasing fragility of the supply chains that we all rely upon." @LindseyMAllen_ @CivilEats

NEW: A former VP of Whole Foods lays out why the Kroger/Albertsons mega-merger is a travesty and could even be criminal.

The massive new grocery chain will have near-monopoly control in major cities. Food prices will go up & workers’ wages will go down.

The FTC must block it.

Buenos Días🌞ICYMI: the #drought has taken a toll on some agricultural workers & their livelihoods. @esth3rquinta & I reported on how farmworkers in the west Fresno County city of Huron are faring in the drought.

Loved working with @xxjdv, a @ucbsoj grad student and 11th Hour Food and Farming Journalism Fellowship and @chefjoseandres fellow, on her story about teenage farm workers in her hometown of Salinas, Calif. Go Jessica, go!

@NoamLeead @lifeandthyme @KosherSoul So happy to hear that, thank you for reading and sharing!

[Lindsey Margaret Allen @LindseyMAllen_]

Writing this piece on okra for @lifeandthyme was a really special experience. Black families have long passed down stories about how our ancestors brought okra to the South. Enjoyed digging into that with @KosherSoul, Chef Serigne Mbaye, and Charlotte Lyons (Ebony).

[Noam Leead @NoamLeead]

@lifeandthyme @the_antonio @giannahughes This piece on Okra's journey in @lifeandthyme from Africa to the American South is really wonderful... ( Stories of seed saving at it's most incredible w/commentary from @KosherSoul )

Anyone know of a dairy that's part of Neutral Milk's supply chain or have any other inside info on their production practices? Curious about the kinds of farms they are working with... #AgTwitter

[The Food & Environment Reporting Network @FERNnews]

After a year of raucous protests and stakeholder meetings, Sonoma County announced it had standardized and reformed its "ag pass" program.
