On this episode of ASCENDING with April R. Silver, host, the conversation is focused on the state of Black farmers today, as well as the global food sovereignty movement. Black farmer and author OMOWALE ADEWALE, and Black farmer NADIA MUYEEB ADEWALE dig into the roots of the movement and its relevance for African Americans.

Because this episode airs on the first day of WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH (March 1, 2025), the husband-and-wife powerful duo highlights the iconic civil rights movement leader FANNIE LOU HAMER and her pioneering work as a Black farmer.

Also, Black veganism (is that a thing?) as a way of life is also on the table for discussion. The farmers and vegans talk about the pros, the cons, the struggle, and the value of plant-based living. PLUS! The date for the 8th annual Black Vegan Festival aka "Black VegFest" will be announced (Francis Pena, co-founder and executive director).

Watch ASCENDING for enriching conversations that tap into the root of today's cultural, artistic, social justice, and spiritual health matters. Come break ground with us and engage! Watch Saturdays at 11:00 am ET.
