[OKC] Native Views on Sustainable Foods

>From The National Museum of the American Indian blog, a post by Shawn
Termin:

 

For many New Yorkers, "Green is the new black," according to Johanna
Gorelick, Head of Education at the NMAI, Heye Center in New York City.
Green markets have popped up in neighborhoods throughout the five NYC
boroughs; shoppers use reusable material totes instead of plastic and paper
bags; and dedicated, earth-centric citizens of the Big Apple are anxious to
learn about the many aspects of the sustainable food movement.  This was
evidenced by an attendance of approximately 350 museum visitors who flocked
to the recent Earth Day program, Native Views on Sustainable Foods, at the
NMAI, Heye Center in New York on April 22, 2010. 

Three prominent speakers participated in the programming.  Winona LaDuke
(Anishinabe), Executive Director of Honor the Earth; Alex Sando (Jemez
Pueblo), representative of Native Seeds/SEARCH; and Kenneth Zontek, author
of Buffalo Nation:  American Indian Efforts to Restore the Bison.
