Lady Drawers: Growing Season
July 14, 2015 11:55 AM   Subscribe

Sarah Becan, one of the best food-focused comics creators in the business, worked on some comics for Truth-Out.org's Ladydrawers series.
* Roots and Migrations looks at how food culture and traditions came to the United States.
* Stinging Nettles: Holding on to Indigenous North American Food Culture takes a peek at the food culture and traditions of North America before colonization - and what it takes to keep them alive today.
* Food and Freedom explores US food policy.
Melissa Mendes adds to the series with Cultivation: Shifting People of Color's Access to Land Use and Cultivating Policy.

This is great. It's interesting, I massively bristled when they compared food freedoms like raw milk to foie. I wonder if the author is totally on board, or just reporting.
