I speak on issues at the intersection of food justice, structural inequality, race, and survival—grounded in over a decade of ethnographic research in Cuba, Los Angeles, and across the U.S. South. My talks are rooted in feminist and decolonial frameworks and are shaped by a commitment to community accountability and cultural clarity.

Topics I regularly speak on include:

• Food justice, food apartheid, and the limits of the current movement
• Race, embodiment, and the politics of nourishment
• Feminist, ethical, and decolonial research methodologies
• Post-socialist Cuba and the politics of everyday life
• ​Building more accountable social justice movements​

I’ve shared my work with:

• University departments in anthropology, Black studies, Latinx studies, public health, and gender studies
• Grassroots food justice organizations and mutual aid networks
• High school and college students exploring activism or cultural studies
• Foundations and funders committed to racial and health equity
• Podcasts, book events, and public panels focused on food, identity, and justice

If you're interested in inviting me to speak, teach, or collaborate, I welcome your outreach
