But how exactly are communities doing this work, why are residents tackling these issues through food, what are their successes, and what barriers are they encountering? This book dives into the heart of the food justice movement through an exploration of East New York Farms! (ENYF!), one of the oldest food justice organizations in Brooklyn, and one that emerged from a bottom-up asset-oriented development model. It details the food inequities the community faces and what produced them, how and why residents mobilized to turn vacant land into community gardens, and the struggles the organization has encountered as they worked to feed residents through urban farms and farmers markets. This book also discusses how through the politics of food justice, ENYF! has challenged the growth-oriented development politics of City Hall, opposed the neoliberalization of food politics, navigated the funding constraints of philanthropy and the welfare state, and opposed the entrance of a Walmart into their community. Through telling this story, Growing Gardens, Building Power offers insights into how the food justice movement is challenging the major structures and institutions that seek to curtail the transformative power of the food justice movement and its efforts to build a more just and sustainable world. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Social justice|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123969|zNew York (State)|zNew York.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79007751-781 650 0 Food security|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2009007706|zNew York (State)|zNew York.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79007751-781 650 0 Urban agriculture|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh85141304|zNew York (State)|zNew York.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79007751-781 650 7 Social justice.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1122603 650 7 Food security.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1748879 650 7 Urban agriculture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1162356 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE / General.|2bisacsh 651 0 Brooklyn (New York, N.Y.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n80040311 651 7 New York (State)|zNew York.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1204333 651 7 New York (State)|zNew York|zBrooklyn.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1312516 776 08 |iPrint version:|z0813589002|z9780813589008|z0813589010 |z9780813589015|w(OCoLC)1292973470 830 0 Nature, society, and culture.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2015097428 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=3154877|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
