Ethnic Diversity in the American Sustainable Agriculture Movement
Review Of: The Earth Knows My Name: Food, Culture and Sustainability in the Gardens of Ethnic Americans By Patricia Klindienst
Since choosing to migrate to rural America with a sort-of "back-to-
the-land" ethos, my community has decreased in ethnic diversity. The suburban neighborhood I grew up in had people of all different races, backgrounds, and religions but most everyone I've met in the "sustainable agriculture movement" in rural Illinois, Washington, Texas, Massachusetts and Wisconsin have been white with American, Christian heritage. I've encountered many organic farms owned by white folk who employ Mexican immigrants but few owned by Mexicans, exacerbating my fear that environmentalist leadership suffers from cultural homogeny.
