At Real Food Media, we believe each one of us has a story to tell, and that sharing our stories strengthens our communities and our movements. Our two podcast series bring you stories from the food movement through a powerful combination of “book smarts” and “street smarts” (or is it soil savvy?). Real Food Reads, our long-standing book club and podcast, interviews the authors of today’s most important books at the intersection of food, politics, and culture. And our newest podcast series, Foodtopias, showcases the stories of workers, farmers, healers, ecologists, BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and people of color), womxn, and community organizers who are growing food & cultivating utopia. Together, Real Food Media podcasts offer you the inspiration you need to build your own food activist toolkit. For more resources, visit: www.realfoodmedia.org.

Seeds, Stories & Solidarity: Anuka De Silva (Part 2)
The peasant youth who are fighting to remain on the land and feed their communities around the world are defying expectations and reshaping what it means to be a peasant farmer today. Their stories challenge old ideas of what a farmer looks like, and ask us to imagine a movement bold enough to shift its politics to meet them. "In 2021 is the first time in the country we had a huge women protest, like a sit-in protest. We occupied 55 days the presidential house. We demanded law reforms. And we did it! That's how I believe women can change the society." Anuka Vimukthi De Silva is a member of the Movement for Land and Agricultural Reform of Sri Lanka (MONLAR) and La Vía Campesina.

Their stories challenge old ideas of what a farmer looks like, and ask us to imagine a movement bold enough to shift its politics to meet them. “Multinationals are rampant in my country. They lure farmers to take climate resistant seeds by offering them loans [for] seeds, which are not Indigenous, by offering them TVs, radios, and solar panels... At the end, they lose their lands to the multinationals."
