Title: LaShawn Lewis Interview, February 29, 2020
Date: February 29, 2020
Creator: LaShawn Lewis; Dominique Hazzard
Description: LaShawn Lewis, born and raised Washingtonian, discusses her experience volunteering for a variety of gardening and food justice organizations, including DC Green and Friends of Aquatic Gardens. She mentions her neighborhood in Ward 7 represents a food desert, with only a single grocery store in the community and many residents struggling to access quality food sources. LaShawn expresses the desire of many individuals in her community to have greater control over their food supply and more choice in the food that they put in their bodies. She credits programs like DC Produce Plus and Produce RX for providing educational resources and access to quality, locally-grown food, to DC residents with preexisting conditions. Farmers Markets, like the market at Deanwood, provide further opportunities for DC residents within food-scare neighborhoods to access quality local produce. More than merely a market, however, LaShawn remembers being comforted by the broader market community when she lost her brother. Having gone without food and other necessities during periods of her childhood, LaShawn is committed to volunteering to help her local community take control of their food systems and is inspired by the many Black women in her community who have successfully begun gardening within their own homes.
