Daniel Anthony is a passionate food sovereignty leader from the island of Oʻahu. He is an advocate for sustainable agriculture and the driving force behind the movement to bring kalo, also known as taro, back to our classrooms, kitchens and local economies. This father of seven has become a prominent figure in the local farming community and co-founded Mana Ai, a company that produces, distributes and promotes fresh artisan poi and paʻi ‘ai made from the kalo plant. He also spearheaded the statewide movement to successfully pass legislation legalizing the public sale of hand-pounded poi, which is produced in the traditional Hawaiian manner using a wooden board and stone. He is also a Hawaiian language advocate, kalo farmer, poi pounder, and activist. In this episode we talk about growing up angry in Waiʻanae, the science of kalo and poi making, allodial titles and land rights, his vision for Hawaiʻi, and so much more. Enjoy!
