Food, Empire and Colonialism: From Palestine to Turtle Island

In this discussion, panelists will examine the relationship between food, empire and colonialism, drawing connections between the current genocide in Gaza with colonial projects across Africa and Turtle Island. Panelists will discuss how imperial and colonial regimes have and continue to use deliberate starvation and the weaponization of food and food growing lands as a means of genocidal violence.

Amid the horrific settler colonial violence happening in Gaza, we also raise crucial questions about the role of food in culture, identity and connection to land. We ask: What pathways exist across colonial contexts to revive, repair and sustain seed and food sovereignty for colonized peoples fighting for freedom, life, and liberation?

We can’t wait to see you in June!!

Foundations, Evolutions, and Revolutions

We are pleased to announce that the 2025 Canadian Association for Food Studies Assembly will be hosted at George Brown College George Brown College from June 2- June 5, 2025 and will be delivered in conjunction with the Federation for Humanities & Social Sciences Congress (running May 30 to June 6, 2025). The broader theme of Congress, just announced, is “Reframing Togetherness.”

Monday June 2 will be dedicated to the pre-conference, which aims to dedicate time towards mentorship and support for new and emerging food studies scholars.

In keeping with the CAFS conference theme of Foundations, Evolutions, and Revolutions we are planning a three-day arc of plenary events that brings to life these animating ideas. Our plenary on Day 1 (Tuesday June 3) will look back to the foundations and origins of food studies in Canada over the last 30 years. On Day 2 (Wednesday June 4), our plenary will look at the present issues, concerns, and priorities characterizing food studies scholarship, practice, and advocacy. On Day 3 (Thursday June 5), the plenary will look towards ongoing evolutions and revolutions in food studies as we move forward in shared yet diverse ways.

We encourage everyone to book this time in their future calendars. We will follow up with calls for submissions and a preliminary program in the near future. Your membership with the Canadian Association for Food Studies is crucial to ensure the delivery of this momentous event. As we plan for the upcoming 2025 CAFS Conference, we urge you to communicate your commitment to our collective work by renewing your membership and encouraging new or emerging researchers, students, and interdisciplinary scholars to join us in the food studies community.
