Some time ago, we announced that we were dedicating a percentage of our profits to grassroots orgs, land/water defenders and mutual aid funds. We know that we function within a capitalist society but we believe there are ways for us redistribute our wealth and center community.

THREAD 1/ Here’s a small example of why #FoodSovereignty is crucial: When the pandemic hit, farmers Asunta and Demetrio became lifelines for their community, Ch’alla Ch’alla, in northern Potosí, Bolivia. Why? Because they're re-growing food sovereignty in their region.

Everyone should have the right to healthy, sustainable and culturally appropriate food. All communities should have #FoodSovereignty.
