Host Marti Oakley and Barb Peterson

Program originally aired on September 5, 2010

Nicole Johnson is a researcher, writer and activist living in Ventura County, CA. Her recent work has focused on the how the food safety legislation before congress is a gift to the global industrial food system at the expense of those who are trying to rebuild a safe, wholesome and local alternative to a government-approved food supply that's slowly robbing us of our collective health. Among other things, Nicole will be talking about how we're being hoodwinked into believing that the pending food safety legislation will make our food safer when in fact its unstated purpose is to empower unelected and unaccountable federal bureaucrats to unconstitutionally usurp local, state and federal regulations, replacing them with those developed by transnational corporations and other vested interests who seek to dominate global markets via a supranational global governance structure beyond the control of citizens of any nation.
