Revolution Plantation (Fantastic Negrito)

May 4th 2025, Botanical Gardens Utrecht
 

On May 4th, we welcomed Xavier Amin Dhrepaulezz, better known as Fantastic Negrito, for an intimate afternoon of story, vision, and sound. Winner of multiple GRAMMY awards, Fantastic Negrito is not only a musical powerhouse; he’s a revolutionary grower, storyteller, and changemaker. Through his visionary project Revolution Plantation - Oakland California (USA), he explores how growing your own food is an act of resistance, healing, and reconnection with the earth, with each other, and with ourselves.

This event was the third in a series of public dialogues on food, migration, and health. We’ve explored the global horrors of industrial food production and zoomed out to our place in the universe. With this dialogue, we’ve zoomed in on how we build futures rooted in care, autonomy, and joy.

We had an afternoon full of radical honesty, laughter, soul-stirring music, and hopeful visions. Thank you for being there!
