Eating Here: The Greater Philadelphia Food System Plan

In 2010, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) published the Greater Philadelphia Food System Study, which explores Greater Philadelphia's agricultural industry, food distribution network, regional food economy, and social capital. While Greater Philadelphia is a part of a global food system, the study focused on the assets, challenges, and opportunities within its 100-Mile Foodshed, a geographic area from which a population's food may theoretically be sourced. As shown in Figure 1.2, the 100-Mile Foodshed comprises 70 counties in five states (New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Delaware, and Maryland) and includes DVRPC's nine-county planning area.Eating Here continues and extends that work, identifying opportunities to develop the regional economy and strengthen our agricultural sector, decrease waste and want, improve public health, protect the region's soil and water, and encourage diversity, innovation, and collaboration. It contains the Committee's specifi c priority recommendations, based on values

Black Lawyers of Missouri: 150 Years of Progress and Promise

In this Article, Judge Epps amasses and orchestrates an unprecedented amount of information about Missouri’s Black lawyers from 1871 to 2021. As Missouri marks its bicentennial, and the sesquicentennial of the first Black lawyer admitted to practice here, this Article offers analysis and insights about the most well-known Black lawyers, including new details on many previously unknown Black lawyers. According to Judge Epps, the earliest of these legal pioneers courageously practiced law when Blacks had few or no rights under the Supreme Court’s interpretation of the Constitution, and de jure and de facto discrimination reigned in Missouri. His research shows how Black attorneys fought prejudice within the profession even as they represented Black clients before a sometimes hostile judiciary. Judge Epps’s scholarship also spotlights a generation of Missouri Black lawyers who shattered ceilings, sparking progress within the profession. This Article is the essential resource to understand the stony road Blacks have trod, the transformation of civil rights law, and the challenges ahead
