- Join the speaker on a familial journey, from slavery to present, as she helps to grow a love of agriculture in the next generation of Black and Brown youth-Helping them reclaim their rightful place as masters of the land. I am a homegrown Buckeye. I grew up in Southfield, daughter of a first-generation American mother and a farm-raised father, and a product of Columbus City Schools. I love food. As the first Black/Latinx president of the College of Food, Agriculture and Environmental Sciences Alumni Society Board, I am an advocate of healthy food access. Much of my career has been to connect youth to healthy food. Whether it is teaching about how to grow food, what to eat, what career choices they have, or selling it to their schools, I want to connect the dots between Black people and our food. I believe that we need to be sitting at the decision-making table when it comes to Ohio’s number-one economic contributor. As a wife and mother of two little girls, I believe that it is important to teach them the power that lies within a seed. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
