Erna Bennett was a plant geneticist and one of the early pioneers of genetic conservation (biodiversity conservation). She was one of the first to raise the issue of biodiversity loss at the United Nations, and challenged the narrative of the Green Revolution being the solution to food security on a global scale.

Not only was she an advocate for local diversity, she was a pilot in World War 2, defected to join the antifascists in Greece, and spent her retirement trying to align Marxist values with ecologically-centered communism.

Happy pride month!
