On this edition of Your Call’s Media Roundtable, award-winning investigative journalist Nate Halverson discusses The Grab, a new documentary that exposes how governments, private investors, and mercenaries are working to seize food and water resources at the expense of entire populations. These groups are establishing themselves as the new OPEC, where future world powers will be those who control not oil, but food.
