it's long, long, long, long
overdue for the black farmers.
this is not a rush to judgment.
mr. king has known about this
issue.
i have testified before him
many, many, many times before.
and this case is about
african-american farmers who
farmed or attempted to farm who
was discriminated against by the
united states department of
agriculture, and i can tell you
about discrimination because i
had a county official to spit on
me and to tear my application up
and throw it in the trash can.
and i begged and pleaded with
the committee to have that
person fired.
that person was never fired.
he was transferred to another
county office to continue to
work out his service for the
united states department of
agriculture and they gave him a
big party.
a big retirement party.
so i can tell you that this
discrimination is real and i
invite mr. king to walk in my
shoes, and other black farmers'
shoes in this country before he
pass judgment and refer to them
as johnny or someone that has a
drug...
