Free Breakfast

The Black Panther's Free Breakfast For Children program emphasized the importance of the connection between nutrition and education.

"Remember when my first meal was school lunch
Now I spit a 16 straight with no punch
Remember all for dinner all we ate was Captain Crunch
Now we blow big blunts on the way to brunch
Went from good fella to commissary slips
Now I got back up man every time I slipped
Never ever quit, I just kept on pursuing
Teacher always ask me, what was I doing
Scribbled in my notebook and never did homework
Low attention span, guess these Adderall worked
Rocked Tommy Hil shirts, ones with the boat
Rockport kicks way before we even smoked
Used to have baby lungs, choking when I hit it
Nowadays lace a whole seven in a sitting
Remember back then we thought we growed up
Rushing at a kid just to be grown up, yeah"

Grown up- Danny Brown

And now they're handing out free chicken and free peanut butter/ Free food to the people, how it should be... Up at the schoolhouse they said motherfuck a hall pass/ Until you teach the truth, check it we ain't going to class/ You're teaching lies, we got wise, now we realize/ There's no end to this road, you disguised the prize/ So peep game for real mental penetration/ Our education's liberation...

Mycelium

Jensen: In your book you say that animals are more closely related to fungi than they are to plants or protozoa or bacteria.


Stamets: Yes. For example, we inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide; so do fungi. One of the big differences between animals and fungi is that animals have their stomachs on the inside. About 600 million years ago, the branch of fungi leading to animals evolved to capture nutrients by surrounding their food with cellular sacs — essentially primitive stomachs. As these organisms evolved, they developed outer layers of cells — skins, basically — to prevent moisture loss and as a barrier against infection. Their stomachs were confined within the skin. These were the earliest animals.[1]

Polycultures of the Mind

Brain food is not junk food for the mind! It nourishes polycultures of the mind as contrasted with what Dr. Vandana Shiva describes as Monocultures of the Mind in Who Really Feeds the World?:

"A Monoculture of the Mind imposes one way of knowing - reductionist and mechanistic - on a world with a diversity and plurality of knowledge systems, These knowledge systems include the knowledge and expertise that come from practice, experience, and working with nature as a partner: the knowledge of women and workers, and of farmers and peasants. These knowledge systems are multiple and diverse. But as ecological biodiversity is replaced by monocultures of food and crops that can be commodified and patented for profits, and as the rich diversity of food cultures is being replaced by monocultures of junk food, the human mind is also being reduced to a monoculture. Monocultures of the Mind, rooted in a reductionist, mechanistic paradigm, create a blindness to the diversity of the world. Based on mechanistic thought, these monocultures are blind to the evolutionary potential and intelligence of cells, organisms, ecosystems, and communities. They are blind to the ecological functions arising from the relationships and cooperation between diverse living components of an agroecosystem. And in a vicious cycle of uniformity, these Monocultures of the Mind once again perpetuate monocultures on the land."[2]

Brain Food Sovereignty

Brain Food Sovereignty.

Nations that we're tryin' to reach, we're aimin' for the highest peak / We came to let the science speak to multitudes in dire need / Of wholesome food for thought cause this is consciousness we're tryin' to feed / Across the 7 seas and 7 continents we fly the breeze
