Subsistence Farming with Ashley Colby
Manage episode 319705331 series 2775101
Ashley Colby is my guest on Episode 153 of Inside Ideas with Marc Buckley. Ashley is the Executive Director of the Rizoma Foundation. She earned her PhD in Environmental Sociology with a focus on household food production in the United States. Her dissertation was published as a book: Subsistence Agriculture in the US: Connecting to work, nature and community. It was in the process of completing her research that Ashley discovered the creativity in individuals creating diverse informal economies unnoticed by policymakers and politicians. Ashley is interested in and passionate about the myriad creative ways in which people are forming new social worlds in resistance to the failures of late capitalism and resultant climate disasters. Ashley is a qualitative researcher, so she tends to focus on the informal spaces of innovation. Ashley’s focus has turned to Rizoma Foundation, where she seeks to accelerate local, decentralized networks of people who can get us to the next iteration of society, and fast.
