Guests will discover how farming leads to healing.

EPISODE SUMMARY:

Less than two percent (2%) of farmers are people who are black. Over 50% of US farms are run by women, according to a 2017 census report. Structural racism has impacted the economic success of many farmers of color, particularly as it relates to receiving loans to support their businesses. Join Rev. Dr. TLC and her guest Hazel Adams-Shango, a New England farmer, as they discuss the history of Black American farming in the United States as well as the status of Black American farming and farmers in the 21st century. Listen in to hear how farming can be used as a tool for dismantling racism in America, especially for women who are black.
