  • They were never part of the safety net For generations, Black farmers have been left out of subsidies, loans, and access to land.

The article by Sonari Glinton, published on Forbes on April 29, 2025, titled "How Racism In Agriculture Built America's Food Apartheid," discusses the deep-rooted systemic racism within the U.S. agricultural sector that has led to the creation of food apartheid. It highlights how historical policies and practices, such as discriminatory lending and land theft, have systematically disenfranchised Black farmers, resulting in a significant reduction in their land ownership over the decades. The piece also examines the current consequences of these actions, including limited access to fresh and healthy food in predominantly Black communities, perpetuating cycles of poverty and health disparities. Glinton emphasizes the need for policy reforms and community-led initiatives to address these inequities and dismantle the structures of food apartheid.
