"Greenwashing and Gentrification from Oakland to Palestine"
Description: 
Join Phat Beets Produce for this world cafe-style workshop that explores how tree plantings in Oakland, Detroit, and Occupied Palestine function to displace low-income people of color and marginalized groups from their neighborhoods and land for the purposes of redevelopment and profit-making. We will explore the commonalities of the techniques and methods used by WOGI (West OaklandGreening Initiative), Hantz Farms in Detroit (largest proposed urban tree farm in the US), and the Jewish National Fund's "Plant a Tree in Israel" campaign to understand how non-profit organizations, private companies and local governments use greenwashing as a tool for displacement and gentrification.
