Black farmers have lost 98 percent of their land over the past century due to factors that include discrimination from the United States Department of Agriculture. Now, with a growing food crisis that disproportionately affects them, a new generation of farmers and organisers are acquiring back that lost land to provide a reliable food source for their communities.
In this episode:
- Kofi Boone (@KBbop), professor of landscape architecture at North Carolina State University
- Kenya Crumel, director of Black Land & Power Initiative at the National Black Food & Justice Alliance
- Cam Terry, owner and farmer with Garden Variety Harvests
