A Franciscan Perspective on Food Justice - 6.19.24

Many chemical additives found in our foods and beverages - like Red 3 and titanium dioxide - are harmful, pervasive, and unnecessary. How can Franciscan values - elevating human thriving and the integrity of creation - inform and energize our policy responses to these problems?
The NYC-Area Franciscan Justice Circle convened a discussion on June 19, 2024 to explore these issues. Speakers for this event included:
NYS Senator Brian Kavanagh
Jensen Jose, Center for Science in the Public Interest
Kelly Moltzen, OFS, Interfaith Public Health Network
