Not only did this film make my stomach growl, my new main goal is to spread the word about this film to peers as well as family members so they may experience and be knowledgeable. The film was celebrated at the Reel Sisters of the Diaspora Film Festival which happened to be the 15th anniversary of the film festival.
The Director: Byron Hurts Film SOUL FOOD JUNKIES provides an educational perspective at looking deep within the bigger picture of the soul food frenzy we all love. The film also captures the history of the favorite food and how it plays a role in health and communities. His story was a segue from his father’s death, which he thought soul food was the initial menace. Once his research began for the film, he soon realized it was foods comfort, which may have played a part.
The film also address a new hindrance in the healthy eating concern, food racism is considered a insistent concern in neighborhoods that may not have healthy options in areas that may not have access to healthy eateries and may be forced to make bad choices when it comes to food. Considering the eating options in areas that are not able to have access to healthy eating options is a major cause and effect for most Africans in America's health.
The film will go far to educate the elephant in the room that exist, and how we are influenced by peers and society in the way we eat, which will eventual become a conditioned eating lifestyle.
After watching this film it defiantly makes you want to soul search your eating habits as well as second guess what types of foods we are digesting, where they come from; the way we are connected to the replenish for humanity and how to gain control of overall health. The film will change the way we think about food as well as transform the movement towards healthy eating for all.
