国立アメリカ歴史博物館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (国立アメリカ歴史博物館Instagram)「Imani Black, founder of Minorities in Aquaculture, wore these boots while working as an oyster farmer in the Chesapeake Bay region. Committed to expanding women’s roles in the field of aquaculture through her organization, Black appreciated how the fabric lining of the boots was designed by the Salmon Sisters, two women from Alaska who operate their own aquaculture business. As environmental changes contribute to the decline of the wild population of oysters in the Chesapeake Bay, oyster farming has become an important and viable alternative. Black's organization represents the future of oysters in the region. Qiana Mickie works on land, in an urban environment. Mickie is helping urban growers transform New York City’s foodscapes as the city’s first executive director of the Office of Urban Agriculture. Combining policy with community advocacy, she’s not only helping to build a more equitable food system, but a more sustainable and environmentally conscious one by creating living-wage jobs, sequestering carbon in the soil, and increasing access to nutrient-dense foods. On November 4 at 2:00 p.m., join Black and Mickie as they weave together stories from the land and water to discuss the ways in which their work overlaps, intersects, and provides exciting and thoughtful models for the future of food. Their Conversation Circle, “Aquaculture and Urban Agriculture During Climate Crises with Imani Black and Qiana Mickie” is a free in-person event that will also be live-streamed.
