MoJo Video: Bryant Terry's Vegan Soul Kitchen:A cook's-eye view on recession-friendly food, what the Black Panthers did right, and whether we really need more hip organic farmers.







Both Alice Waters and Van Jones praise Bryant Terry's new cookbook, Vegan Soul Kitchen. And not just for the recipes. Terry, a food policy fellow for the Kellogg Foundation, has a history of whipping up recipes for change, not just food.

After founding a youth nonprofit and hosting the public television series The Endless Feast, Terry now travels across the country giving lectures on everything from the prevalence of diet-related diseases in the South to "food deserts" in Oakland. He joined Mother Jones on video to whip up his healthy version of a quintessential soul food recipe and talk about racism in the food system, faith-based food activism, and the Southern Organic Kitchen Project.MORE


Re: His bit about foundation funding. The revolution will not be funded sounds a warning against foundation use due to their habit of constraining and redirecting the movements they fund into pathways that end up benefiting said foundation owners and funders, rather than the people themselves.
