Deconstructing Dinner in Our Schools

From the always informative “Deconstructing Dinner” series, “Deconstructing Dinner in Our Schools II” happens to focus on a Meatrix inspired classroom presentation given by Kodiak Morasky- a 10 year old from Nelson, BC. If you have the time to listen to the broadcast (this part comes up around 45:00 into the program), you will be amazed at the articulate and passionate speech.

“Kodiak’s 10 years of age shouldn’t fool you. He is deeply concerned with the state of Canada’s food supply. His concerns include factory animal farms, genetic engineering and chemical pesticides among others. He is passionate about sharing this information with his friends and classmates.”

About Deconstructing Dinner in Our Schools II:

“How do food and agricultural issues make their way into educational settings? On this episode of Deconstructing Dinner in Our Schools, we hear from 10-year old Kodiak Morasky who chose a very unique topic to present to his grade 4 classmates in Nelson, B.C. Kodiak was introduced to the world of factory animal farms through the on-line animated series of short films known as The Meatrix. The film had a profound impact on Kodiak, and we listen in on his in-class presentation. Upon learning of the horrific stories coming out of North America’s factory farms, we hear one child ask, ‘can I sue the government?’”
