3 Pillars of a Food Revolution

by Anna Lappé from Yes! Magazine

I think she has some great ideas about how the food/agricultural system will need to be revamped to fit into the sustainable world that working people will create--or maybe I should say, "must create" if the human race is to survive capitalism. 

However, she seems to suggest that we can change this subsystem without changing capitalism. This viewpoint illustrates a typical liberal shortsightedness, an inability or resistance to looking at social issues from a systems perspective.
