This Week on Democracy Matters: Leila Connors, director of Leonardo DiCaprio's "11th Hour" on her new film "Urban Roots"

On this week's program we talk with Leila Connors - director of Leonardo DiCaprio's film 11th Hour - on her new film Urban Roots which shares the story of the growing urban farm movement in the City of Detroit.  And the corporatization of agriculture - what it means for you and the food you eat.

Each week on Democracy Matters we bring you stories from the frontlines as communities bring rights-based organizing to their communities - asserting their local self-governing authority to make the critical decisions that affect their lives and their community.
