“Environmental justice activists are traditionally concerned with the disproportionate burden of environmental toxins borne by low-income people and people of color. The West Oakland Farmers Market is in some ways the inverse of this. It is concerned with providing access to environmental benefits — healthy food and public space — through the creation of a local food system.”
