USDA: The last plantation

Didn’t inform Black farmers of programs that could improve their farmland.
Meanwhile, white farmers had few of these problems, Wright says.
“That’s because of the local control, at the county level. You almost need to eliminate the county committees and local controls. Agriculture’s unique for that kind of county control, which sounds good for some folks. But not Black folk,” says Wright, who has since retired. “Local control is good, providing that you have a system of oversight to avoid having those local folk take care of themselves, their family, and their friends.

Tanner, Alabama farmers Greg and Bill Bridgeforth
From behind the wheel of his Ford pickup, Bill Bridgeforth surveys silt-clay-loam fields in northern Alabama. On either side of Bridgeforth Road – named after his father, Darden – corn, soybeans, wheat, and cotton grow in rotation.
Bill, who farms with his two sons, Kyle and Carlton; his brother Greg; and Greg’s son Lamont, joins other farmers who worry about weather, the markets, weeds, and pests.
Like his ancestors, though, Bill Bridgeforth faces an additional challenge. He’s Black.
Greg and Bill’s great-grandfather George was a freed slave following the Civil War. A white family, the Bridgeforths, gave him farmland in Tennessee on which he began raising his family and took the Bridgeforth name. George’s son Isaac – Greg and Bill’s grandfather – took the train from Tennessee to college in Tuskegee. During a whistle-stop in Tanner, Alabama, Isaac became enamored with the area’s r ....

Black farm leaders and civil rights advocates are speaking out over the lack of scrutiny of Tom Vilsack s civil rights record during his confirmation hearing to lead the USDA.
“It was the Senate giving him a free pass,” said John Boyd, president of the National Black Farmers Association, about the lack of questioning. “It wasn’t just Vilsack failing, it was the members of the Senate Ag Committee that failed.” ....
