Food Justice? Course at CSU Fullerton also discussed how to Resist Trump

, Spencer Irvine, Leave a comment

The food justice course, entitled, “The Social Life of Food”, discuss the global capitalist takeover of the food industry and how it harms social justice-minded people. Also, the final assignment focused on an anti-Trump website:

The final assignment asks students either to choose and analyze a “build strategy” from an apparently anti-Donald Trump website or to write an individual research paper on a particular food, “analyzing its history, transformation through global capitalist production, its environmental costs, and the racialized-gender work that is part of its production.”

The anti-Donald Trump website, www.ungovernable2017.com, appears to be an online hub for “resistance” to Trump’s election and administration, and includes a pledge “to create a resistance movement that makes Trump unable to govern…We refuse to give hatred…a chance to roll back civil and human rights.”
