Black Farmers & Stolen Land
In this episode we examine the disenfranchisement of Black farmers that has robbed our communities of generational wealth, access to equitable resources and education, and significantly contributed to Black health disparities.
And we highlight the Federation of Southern Cooperatives/Land Assistance Fund, an organization that has saved millions of dollars’ worth of Black-owned farmland.
