Leah Penniman Black Earth Wisdom

Leah Penniman, author of Farming While Black and co-founder of Soul Fire Farm. She is a Black Kreyol farmer, author, mother, and food justice activist who has been tending the soil and organizing for an anti-racist food system for 25 years. Leah returns to DITD to talk to me about her new book that is called Black Earth Wisdom - soulful conversations with black environmentalists. It’s been said that Leah weaves together the lessons from today’s most respected Black environmentalists, those who have cultivated the skill of listening to the lessons that Earth has whispered to them.
