Agricultural labor is among the most underpaid and underprotected work worldwide. Soul Fire Farm participates in the Food Justice Certified program which audits farms to ensure that workers receive time off, benefits, and safe working conditions. https://t.co/X9XzwOTMKm

This society is obsessed with the “hero narrative.” While individual leaders are beloved and irreplaceable, the truth is that movements are comprised of many organizations and individuals.

We created the “Beyond Heroes” media guide to push for change.

Thank you for these words @naimainfinity that remind us that we are worthy of time, flight, and love. Not because of what we do but because of who we are. A masterpiece. A miracle.

Greetings friends,

I will be on Sabbatical from June through December 2023. 

I am so grateful for your support of this period of refresh and reset, which is profoundly necessary after two decades of steadfast labor and unwavering dedication to the work.
