JOIN US LIVE ONLY FOR A SCREENING OF FARMING WHILE BLACK
A feature film about the rising generation of young black farmers. Featuring Leah Penniman, author of “Farming While Black.”
Leah Penniman, co-founder of Soul Fire Farm, reflects on the plight of Black farmers in the United States.
From the height of Black-owned farms at 14% in 1910 to less than 2% today, Leah, and other compatriots help propel a rising generation of Black farmers finding strength in the deep historical knowledge of African agrarianism — and its potential to save the planet.
Parkway United Church of Christ, Temple Emanuel Environmental Movement, Green Street Methodist Church and Unitarian Universalist Fellowship are collaborating for the 2026 MONTHLY ENVIRONMENTAL FILM/SPEAKER SERIES in the hosting of these films.
Discussions to follow the showing of the films.
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC! ALL ARE WELCOME!!!
