Harvesting Justice: Transforming Food, Land, and Agricultural Systems in the Americas, by Beverly Bell and Tory Field (Other Worlds, 2013)
Throughout the U.S. and the world, people are reclaiming food systems from multinational agribusiness and putting them back in the hands of small farmers, low-income communities, farmworkers, guardians of Native culture, and health-conscious eaters. Harvesting Justice is the result of five years of research and interviews from throughout the hemisphere. The book describes strategies to win food justice and food sovereignty, and offers more than 100 inspiring case studies - some led by Grassroots' partners. An appendix and popular education curriculum offer hundreds of concrete ways to learn more and get involved.
Fault Lines: Views across Haiti's Divide
By Beverly Bell (Cornell University Press, 2013)
Activist-author Beverly Bell has lived and worked in and out of Haiti for more than three decades, and helped launch Grassroots International's Haiti program in 1991. Her new book, Fault Lines, is a searing account of the first year after the earthquake. Fault Lines looks into the cracks the 2010 earthquake opened in Haiti’s society, economy, and polity, focusing on the first year after. It looks at what grassroots movements are doing to pull structural change from inside those cracks. It takes a backwards look at history to examine how social and economic fault lines developed, and throws a forward glance at Haitians’ visions for the future. As bonus, you will learn about all of Grassroots' Haiti
