Vandana Shiva - The Truth About Food!

Russell Brand
About this episode

Russell chats to the Indian scholar and environmental activist, Vandana Shiva. Recorded live at Community 2023, Russell and Vandana tackle the farmers' fight against corporate power, how elites are flexing their control, and the chilling realities of 'Food Fascism'. Plus, the media's prevailing narrative advocating for the elimination of farm animals to combat climate change and the eerie resemblance between 'Big Data' exploitation and oil profiteering.
