SUMMARY:RaJade Berry James - Cultural Perceptions of GM Foods  | GES Colloquium (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:GES Colloquium Home | Zoom Registration | GES MediaSite | Video Archives | Podcast | @GESCenterNCSU | Newsletter \nDoes Responsible Innovation Really Matter? Examining Cultural Perceptions of Biotechnology In Food Systems\nSpeaker: RaJade Berry James\, PhD\, Associate Professor of Public Administration at NC State\nWebsite | Email | Twitter @jadeberryjames \nRegarding Genetically Modified Foods\, do historical reality and social skepticism still matter? It depends. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nNote: Colloquium will be held via Zoom until the university resumes normal operations. Click Register/Join button at the bottom of this page for Zoom link. See Virtual Colloquium: Zoom Instructions for Zoom information. \n×\nAbstract\nUnderstanding the GMO food debate is complex. In the public sphere\, the use of biotechnology to produce food is fueled by consumer skepticism. The views on food safety are polarizing – citizens and scientists differ. Whether science is used to close the gap between social groups has yet to be determined. Research findings and policy making pathways are almost non-existent for underrepresented groups. Among Blacks\, government distrust and mistrust have historical meaning and real implications. Some Blacks remain skeptical of government and are skeptical of genetic engineering\, too. Key to responsible innovation is the potential to unlock meaningful pathways into underrepresented communities. \nRelated resources:  \nBerry-James\, R. M. (2019\, March).
