6:05Now PlayingAlmost a year after Black farmers were set to receive $4 billion in federal funds, they have still not seen a dime of those funds, which are being held up in lawsuits filed by white farmers arguing that the bill racially discriminates against them.
According to a new report in The Hill, fourth-generation farmer and the president of the National Black Farmers Association John Boyd Jr. says he’s not going to go away and he’s calling on the White House to follow through on a meeting he says was supposed to materialize with President Biden but has not yet taken place.
Boyd Jr. joins Charles Blow on “Prime” to discuss.
All this and more on “Prime.”
