The Detroit People's Food Co-Op
Manage episode 415496201 series 2937923
After 14 years of organizing and building, the Detroit People’s Food Co-op will open its doors on Wednesday, May 1st, with a grand opening celebration to follow on Saturday, May 18th.
The co-op was fathered by the Detroit Black Community Food Security Network. Malik Yakini, who co-founded the group, currently serves as its executive director.
"Part of what we're working on is really not just addressing access, but addressing the questions of who shapes the food system, who owns it, who benefits from it,” Yakini said. “And really, we're trying to make a shift in power from the corporate side of things, controlling things to actually having a food system that is shaped by control by and serves people.”
GUESTS:
- Akil Talley, general manager, the Detroit People’s Food Co-op
- Malik Yakini, co-founder and executive director of the Detroit Black Community Food Security Network
