Welcome to the Land, Food, and Freedom Journal. We envision this journal as an apex of collectively curated efforts to reclaim space, togetherness, kinship, intellectual rigor, healthy debate, and creative expansiveness in all imaginable ways toward Black food sovereignty and liberation. This space is for the dear farmers, loving land stewards, growers, earth lovers, activists, academics, freedom fighters (we hope that’s all of you), artists, intellectuals, street scholars, organizers, cultural workers, culinary artists, and community members. This space is for every one of you, in between and beyond.
