Episode 39: “Agricultural Antifascism” ft. Open Source Farms

In Pt. I of our 2-part Coffee with Comrades special on climate change and food autonomy, we spend the hour hanging out with Kevin and Jordyn Zak of Open Source Farms. But, first, some news: As climate change continues to cause devastating flooding in the midwest, Trump is pushing through authorization for new oil pipelines. Mexico Beach, FL residents are trying to fight off disaster capitalism. Donate to Mutual Aid Disaster Relief! FL is poised to implement an “anti-Human Trafficking” law. FL sex workers demand decriminalization. A leaked report labels antifascists as the “real aggressors.” The owner of Wendy’s gives big to Trump, but refuses to pay farm-workers an additional cent per tomato. Our wide-ranging conversation with Kevin and Jordyn digs into Open Source Farms, Turnip Greens Radio, food autonomy, building dual-power, anthropogenic climate change, and how agriculture can help us build our resiliency in the fight against fascism.
