Land-Grant Universities and Structural Racism in the US Food System
The Inter-Institutional Network for Food, Agriculture, and Sustainability (INFAS), a W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF) national network of WKKF endowed chairs of which Casey Hoy, InFACT faculty director, is a member, recently released "A deeper Challenge of Change: The role of land-grant universities in assessing and ending structural racism in the US food system." The essay builds on "The Challenge of Change: Harnessing University Discovery, Engagement, and Learning to Achieve Food and Nutrition Security," a report that was compiled by a commission appointed by the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) that included Hoy and Bruce McPheron, Ohio State's executive vice president and provost.
