'Soul Food Junkies' Screening + Discussion Online

PLEASE BE OUR GUEST at an online screening & discussion of the acclaimed film "Soul Food Junkies (63 minutes)," hosted by Chicago-area organizations Austin Coming Together, One Earth Film Festival, and Austin Renaissance Council, as part of the Austin Eats Initiative.

FULL FILM DESCRIPTION:

Byron Hurt/63 min/Food & Agriculture

Soul Food Junkies explores the health advantages and disadvantages of Soul Food, a quintessential American cuisine. Soul food will also be used as the lens to investigate the dark side of the food industry and the growing food justice movement that has been born in its wake.

Film is appropriate for adult and general audiences, including youth middle school and above.

This event is part of Austin Eats, a collaborative working to rewrite the narrative around food in Chicago's Austin community. By synergizing organizations already promoting healthier food choices through grocery access, culinary entrepreneurship, food education, community gardens, and urban farms, Austin Eats will recreate Austin’s food access ecosystem.
