Ep 320 - One Million Experiments Part 12: Feed Black Futures with Ali Anderson

The 1ME crew gets their hands dirty this month with Ali Anderson of Cali-based experiment Feed Black Futures. Created in 2020 as a crowdfunding campaign to feed 20 families for two weeks at the start of the pandemic soon became an organization that feeds Black mamas/caregivers impacted by the carceral system in counties across California by partnering with Black and Brown-owned farms and food suppliers across California. FBF is committed to creating a world where Black people have access to high-quality fresh produce and the means and skills to produce it. Founder Ali breaks down what happened when she ended up with way more money than she expected, the bonds her work has forged, and the regenerative joy people get from keeping their hands in the soil.
