Jacksonville’s food desserts are creating an empty hole for grocery stores that are abruptly closing, which hinders the ability to provide healthy food choices for our families.” The Masjid plans to stay tuned to the ‘Death by Food’ dialogue and will be following up with part two at the end of the year.
