 https://belonging.berkeley.edu/justice-black-farmers-conversation-uproot-racist-policy-and-plant-seeds-redress\n\nThe 
 introduction of the Justice for Black Farmers Act in 2020 and the Emergency 
 Relief for Farmers of Color Act of 2021 was the first time many Americans 
 learned about the historical and ongoing discrimination against farmers of 
 African descent by local farm service agencies and private entities like 
 banks. Yet, it was only the latest chapter in the long saga of anti-Black 
 racism in American farming. \n\nJoin a panel of legacy farmers, critical 
 race scholars, and a civil rights lawyer to learn about the grave 
 injustices of the 1999 Pigford v. Glickman class action racial 
 discrimination lawsuit, recent actions by the Biden Administration and 
 Congress to rectify these wrongs, and what you can do to support a more 
 fair and democratic farming system in the United States.\n
