The introduction
of genetically modified crops in Africa threatens to poison agricultural
workers, undermine public health, drive small farmers off the land and
allow a massive transfer of wealth to western corporations. This biological
imperialism is the latest step in a pattern of exploitation and domination
of African culture, society, economics and politics that has occurred
for centuries.
Panelists:
Moriel Israel, Executive Director, Support a Child Foundation
Don Fitz,
Spokesperson on Toxins, Green Party of St. Louis
Co-sponsored
