      We have to unleash America’s agricultural system. We have to stop paying farmers and not to grow food. We know a farmer in the Midwest who owns almost a section of productive land. Every year he paints his mailbox So he is mailman make no mistake when the government checks or delivered for our friend not to grill food.

      Although they are not suppose to, it has been proven facts they do. They did during covid until a big stink was made, that the big corporations, who didn't need the money was taking it and the businesses of poc were being denied . They raised a big stink and were allowed some of the money. Yet with little oversight, if any at all, millions were funneled to corporation who didn't need it and Trump pulled away the flagged businesses so they would not be investigated. I wonder how much went to his businesses, pac, and buddies on Capitol hill?

Example: black farmer buys way more than he should. Owes millions. Now the government is expected to come in and just pay that off???? Because he's black??? That's why the bill didnt work. Same as buying and buying on credit cards and just asking someone to pay it off for you.

    So, what color is ConAgra? Or Monsanto? How about you put a comparison up showing the number of "white owned farms" in 1920 compared to today? I bet you'd find private/family ownership of farms is down universally. The increasing corporate ownership of farm land and the consolidation of smaller plots has been a trend for a long time. If you want to make this "racist," no one can stop you but it's hardly honest to report it the way you are. Also, if 13% of the country is African American then why is farm ownership HIGHER than 13% among African Americans? Why do I have a feeling this is one instance where reporting will not suspect racism?

Often politicians-rogue-politicians divide people to make it easier for them to manage us. I have been to many countries and graduated from the Agricultural Academy and worked in agriculture both at home and in the former Soviet agriculture. When I was young, I realized that those who do not want to work are just parasites in this life, people who work are considered stupid ... and if we talk about those who work in agriculture ... they generally name this is so (many people just think so in their heads, but they speak as if these are affectionate words addressed to farmers) cattle.

      By the turn of the 20th century, former slaves and their descendants had amassed 14 million acres of land. Black agriculture was a powerhouse; per capita, there were more black farmers than white farmers. But by the turn of the 21st century, 90 percent of that land was lost. Some of that can be chalked up to the Great Migration when southern blacks fled to northern cities to escape the racist violence and systemic oppression of the South. Less known is the story of those who stayed in rural areas and their efforts to hold on to their land within a legal system that seemed designed to shift it - and the generational wealth it represented - to white ownership.

    I can tell that a lot of people commenting on this site don't know about USDA's racist and discrimination history inflicted on Black farmers from "'emancipation" until today. In 1920 there were 945,000 Black farms and today there are only 35,000 Black farms. There are countless stories of Black people that were killed for there land. In fact, some of the killers are known because they ended up with the land. And yet, today neither the Black descendants have been compensated and neither has the killer(s) of their love one ever been prosecuted or gone to prison! That's one reason why reparations are in order.

    Attacking Ukraine is not smart, as that's an entire country at risk which we interfered with and helped cause the Putin attack.
    SO we owe Ukraine... But we also owe these black farmers.
    BUT do not compare a few peoples farms to the lives of millions of innocent people and the future of democracy.
    And lets be honest Ukraine farms are in direct competition with these American farmers so clearly there is an understandable bias there.
    BUT NOT remotely comparable and not a smart argument.
    I hope they get the help they were promised or a form of it.

      No attack on Ukraine . Why not take care of your own! Why send money elsewhere?
