Hi Ragen. I tried to contact you in IG DM, not sure if it transmitted. Professor Richard Wolff, the host of Economic Update from the Democracy @ Work project, is looking for program topics. They often speak to the deleterious effects that our current political economy has on health. Much of what they say makes a lot of sense, but they often go into the vein of seeing adiposity as one of those effects. I do think there is fertile ground in their audience to being up the capitalist capture of research and regulatory bodies in the manufactured consent around societal perceptions of the fat population and the role of fat liberation in the struggle for alternative futures. I hope you'll engage their contact, Charlie.Info438@gmail.com about this and let him know of your work and that of others you feel are good lodestones for communication.
