This episode, I’m talking with Fort Worth-based, author and ecological health advocate, Jarid Manos. We’re discussing his journey of discovering how the “violence that we accept into ourselves mirrors the violence that we do to the earth”, which I believe is expertly chronicled in his book, Ghetto Plainsman. This is one of my book faves this year, and I urge you grab a copy of this gritty and raw narrative. Learn more at his website: www.ghettoplainsman.com
Jarid is also the founder and CEO of Great Plains Restoration Council (GPRC), based in Fort Worth, TX, with offices in Colorado and South Dakota.
Jarid and I also talk politics, Prop. 8, and being a vegan athlete. Jarid serves on the board of directors for the Black Vegetarian Society of Texas. Their website is www.bvstx.org.
