Join NYU Libraries for an insightful discussion with some of our most esteemed panelists about how the conversation, study, and action around food has evolved over the last two decades. Together, we’ll reflect on 20 years of the Critical Topics in Food event series and examine the role that thoughtful community gatherings like these have played in shaping our collective dialogue about food. The Critical Topics in Food event series is a partnership between NYU Special Collections, NYU Steinhardt Department of Nutrition & Food Studies, and Clark Wolf.

New York: Mayoral Candidate Forum on Food, Agriculture, Nutrition & Hunger
I am moderating a forum for candidates for Mayor of New York City at The New School’s Tishman auditorium, 66 West 12th Street. It runs from 6 – 8 p.m. (Doors open at 5 p.m.).
The Forum is co-hosted by the Brooklyn Food Coalition, City Harvest, Food Bank For New York City, Food Chain Workers Alliance, Food Studies program at The New School for Public Engagement, Food Systems Network NYC, Hunger Action Network NYS, Just Food, New York City Coalition Against Hunger, New York City Food Policy Center at Hunter College, NRDC Action Fund, and Public Health Solutions.
These are joined by about 70 partner organizations, and the list is growing.
I get to ask the questions. What fun!
