New York, NY, November 19, 2015 (Newswire.com) - “An Introduction to Veganism and Agricultural Globalism” provides the reader with a concise history on the rise of fast food and heart disease in America from the 1970’s to now. The book is a guide on how to eat healthier and smarter as a vegan, with delicious recipes. Omowale provides nutritional context to agricultural topics such as, soybeans, seitan, vitamin B12, plant protein, wild hybrid plants and phytoestrogens.
Omowale supports his text with carefully researched material courtesy of the MaRLI program, a collaborative of New York Public Library (NYPL), Columbia University and NYU. “An Introduction to Veganism and Agricultural Globalism” culminates into a historical document of the United States’ 20-year investment in the field of biotechnology, particularly, genetically engineered crops.
"The market around the corner is interconnected in a weblike-structure with the national and global market. It would be a catastrophic injustice to concern myself just with the locality of racial justice here and not the justice of the international community."
Omowale Adewale, Author
Omowale discusses the collaboration of US imperialism and big agribusiness in keeping Third World nations in debt through agricultural trade and supranationals. Omowale provides historical context, citing history of supranationals such as UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank and the World Trade Organization (WTO) working under the auspices of the United States government to control crops, farmers and land in developing nations.
“An Introduction to Veganism and Agricultural Globalism” was designed for the beginning vegetarian or vegan as well as the average US American who doubts their impact on the rest of the world. Omowale lends a solution in his conclusion that includes acknowledging this globalist phenomenon and considering veganism.
