Recently, I got to do an interview with Bryant Terry. He is the co-author of Grub, and is working on a second cookbook due out soon called Organic Soul. He has appeared on PBS and Sundance Channel and other shows. But what makes Terry inspiring to me is his work on "Food Justice." He's developed several programs that support sustainable, local foods for people who need access to healthy food and nutrition education. His efforts seek to empower people to make better food choices in their communities and to rise up to influence national and state policy.
You should take time to read the interview here and get inspired yourself. Food Justice is something we should all be working toward as well as exploring the world of sustainable, local foods.
I guess if that is not enough to get you to click the link, the interview includes a damn fine recipe for Sweet Cornmeal-Coconut Butter Drop Biscuits. Man, I love soul food. And there just isn't enough places to get it near me. I am going to have to buy the book.
