Dear friends of mine are holding a wonderful event, Rethinking the Harvest. The evening is already set to be rich, with speakers at the forefront of the conversation on race and land justice in Britain. However, they are still looking for a Welsh, or Wales-based person, preferably (but not essentially) black or a POC, who might have knowledge and experience with the history of land justice specifically as it pertains to Wales. They would hopefully have an understanding of Wales and its land both as colonised and as the beneficiary of colonisation, and be able to speak to these specific histories and how they inform the current situation. Some info about the event:

“Revolution is based on land. Land is the basis of all independence. Land is the basis of freedom, justice, and equality” Malcolm X

Our food systems are built upon racism, colonial realities, and the exploitation of the Earth and her peoples. For people of colour in the UK, issues of food security, health inequality, environmental injustice and disconnection from nature – persist and blight the lives of communities who have long histories of disenfranchisement from land.

If this person is you, or you know somebody who might fit, please get in touch.

With gratitude,

Samson
