SUMMARY:Embracing Food Justice: Transforming Our Food Systems from See
 d to Table

 nomic crises of our time. A food justice movement has arisen in recent
  years that seeks to address the structural inequalities of colonialis
 m, racism, capitalism, classism, gender inequities (and more) that are
  inherent in our food systems.\nThis global food justice movement seek
