“ In 1999, Black farmers won”
“similarly situated white farmers”
“stop aid for non-White farmers continues”
“aren’t the Black farmers who”
“If black farmers and other”

Didn’t they do this during the Obama mis-administration? I remember it being said that any black person with a flower bed could apply. No Whites allowed.
