The World Economic Forum (WEF) wrapped up its 2023 meeting in Davos, Switzerland, facing public pressure over its programs to influence government through business, investment, and partnerships. Elon Musk received millions of responses on Twitter when he raised the question of whether the WEF should “control the world.” The answer was a resounding “no,” but it raised deeper questions over what the organization has come to represent. Is it just a business and finance organization, or is it becoming a global unelected government? Meanwhile, WEF's plan for “alternative” foods is now becoming better known. The agenda openly includes bugs, lab-grown meat, and lab-grown plants, as the organization looks to recreate the way that people grow and consume food. In this live Q&A with Crossroads host Joshua Philipp, we'll discuss these stories and others, and answer questions from the audience. ⭕️ Stay up-to-date with Josh with the Crossroads NEWSLETTER

Nonprofit news for the week. 2020 Census Undercounted Hispanic, Black, & Indigenous Communities According to reporting from The New York Times, the 2020 United States census undercounted hard-to-reach communities and disproportionately undercounted Hispanic, Black, and Indigenous Americans. The count was affected not only by the logistical hurdle of counting during the height of the pandemic but also due to attempted political interference by the Trump administration. While experts note that “historically, undercounted populations that are harder to reach through surveys, phone calls and door-to-door canvassing, including Native Americans on reservations, poor urban communities and undocumented immigrants,” the undercount could still affect the political clout of traditionally underserved communities.

Welcome back to calm, cool, and connected where we are very passionate about encouraging you to watch what you're putting in your body because food is medicine. So we have none other than the co-founder of The Neighborhood Harvest, Thomas Vandiver here today to talk all about how eating healthily can benefit your mood and physical health. The tagline we use is wholesome goodness delivered. That really sums up what we do because many of the things that we do are considered healthy in a conventional sense, and that they're organic pesticide free, they're fresh. They were grown, picked today delivered to you tomorrow. Incredible nutrient density, right? That organic based nutrition breaks down over time. The longer you are away from harvest, the less nutrient dense it is. Those ones, those sort of items are self-explanatory. Then you talk about some of the things where people don't understand pasture raised proteins, right? Our red meat that we sell our beef is grass fed and grass finished for people who are really passionate about healthy eating, they'll totally understand the difference because grass fed really doesn't mean anything just means that the cow was fed grass at some point. And grass finished means that they were raised on pasture their entire life. They only ate grass, which is what a cow is supposed to eat. And with that being said, red meat, beef that is grass fed and grass finished is actually part of a healthy diet. That's an important, healthy fat, you've got higher levels of selenium, iron, those trace minerals that you need. And so it can be part of a healthy diet, but then you talk about our kitchen operation. We make amazing meals. So let's say that I go to the grocery store and I see just a package of chicken. Why would using a protein that was grass fed or organic, be important compared to just picking any old package of meat ?I love that you asked about the chicken because that's one of the proteins we do that I think is so incredible. And we're able to bring that product to our customers here in the Hampton roads in Richmond, there's actually a waiting list to join the farmers focus . Co-op, there's a waiting list of farmers who want to transition from their old conventional chicken farming ways growing for one of the big names they want to grow for. Farmer's focus . The reason being is that they know that their method, the way that these chickens are raised is better for their family, right? For the farming family, doing the work, it's better for the chickens during the life to they do have with us. It's better for the end user.DISCLAIMER: THE CONSULTATIONS or interactions with Rachel Ann Dine OFFERED ARE NOT MENTAL HEALTH THERAPY.

Is food the key to solving our healthcare crisis? In this episode marking the two-year anniversary of Add Passion and Stir, Congressman Jim McGovern of Massachusetts and Washington DC Chef Todd Gray (Equinox, Manna) discuss nutrition as the root cause of our spiraling healthcare costs and the role of Congress with Debbie and Billy Shore. “Food is medicine. What we eat determines our health outcomes in a whole range of areas,” says Congressman McGovern. “We are cooking and operating our restaurant in the way that we are living our lives. I have so many customers changing the way they eat for a multitude of reasons many of them health reasons,” says five-time James Beard Foundation nominee Gray of his healthy vegetable-forward menus that have established him as a leader in the DC sustainable food movement. McGovern wants to reframe the debate over food programs like SNAP from how much they cost to how much they save. “If we can show you over a ten-year period that you could actually save money, then why would [The Congressional Budget Office] score it as a cost? Hunger and food insecurity in Massachusetts costs about $2.4B a year in avoidable health care costs,” he says. The guests agree that hunger is ultimately a political problem. “We have the food, we have the money, we have the knowledge of what we need to do, we have the infrastructure… we have everything but the political will,” explains McGovern. Listen to these powerful anti-hunger crusaders talk about how they fight for healthier communities.
