The media always turns a positive into a negative why is that necessary? The headlines to this story is negative . The fact that some farmers received the funds is a positive why couldn’t that be the main focus? In fact farmers who produce and provide food are beneficial to all of us. If someone has chickens a few cows and a few horses doesn’t make them farmers. Equality is screamed daily all provide should be treated equally. Rather than point fingers, blame others, assume things equality should be for all. The racial slurs, and racism itself is losing its meaning due to the fact that some find everything racist. Whining and complaining is less than acceptable.

In August of 2022 the NBFA president Boyd confirmed Biden’s withdrawal of support for black farmers! The month prior Biden gave Ukraine $100 million dollars for their ‘Agriculture Resilience Project!’(AKA: their pockets)Wonder why Biden and the government all of a sudden are pretending to care about the black farmer🤔🤔🤔ITS A MYSTERY!😂😂People are so gullible!
