Hi Everyone,
We are certainly living through weird times! It is a scary thought to think that women will once again need to resort to back room abortions, since the Supreme Court rejected the opportunity to block Texas’s abortion ban. What is equally upsetting, is that the law encourages neighbors to spy on each other and to report anyone who is helping someone get an abortion. It’s unbelievable.
If you are free this Saturday, please join the Women’s March, either in DC or in a city near your home, and Protect a Women’s Right to Make Decisions for Her Own Body!
Please join the March and let your voice be heard!
My Guest this week on the Progressive Radio Network is Jim Goodman, to Talk About the Disparity to Parity Movement and Organization!
Jim Goodman is a team member of the editorial group at Disparity to Parity, a non-profit organization working to mandate fair pricing and update supply management to build a racially just, economically empowered, and climate resilient food system. Jim is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Platteville with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Animal Science. He also holds a Masters Degree in Reproductive Physiology from South Dakota State University.
Jim and his wife Rebecca ran a 45-cow organic dairy and direct market beef farm in southwest Wisconsin for 40 years.
His farming roots trace back to his great-grandparents immigration from Ireland during the famine and the farm’s original purchase in 1848. Jim credits more years of failed farm and social policy than he cares to think about, as his motivation to advocate for a farmer-controlled consumer-oriented food system.
In addition to working with Disparity to Parity, Jim is a board member of Midwest Environmental Advocates, Family Farm Defenders and is the current board president of the National Family Farm Coalition. Please join us and learn about what our food system could look like if it was in the power of the farmer.
