Why do Minnesotans experience some of the worst racial disparities in home ownership in this country?

Join Twin Cities Food Co-ops, The East Side Freedom Library and TPT-2 to explore this question through the film “Jim Crow of the North,” which delves into the complex history of racial covenants in the Twin Cities and systematic racism that has lasting repercussions on housing inequities today.

Participants will receive a link for this hour-long documentary to watch in advance of this virtual panel discussion with the film’s producer Dan Bergin, Rebecca Walker from Mapping Prejudice, and food justice activist Miah Ulysse. The discussion will also focus on how our co-op community can address the related inequity of food access in the Twin Cities.

Registered participants will be emailed the documentary link along with details to join the virtual event one week before, one day before, and again as a reminder one hour before the event begins. After the event, participants will also receive a link to the event recording for future reference.
