BOYDTON, Va., Aug. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — As of late, John W. Boyd, Jr., founder and president of the Nationwide Unlit Farmers Affiliation (NBFA), exempted this remark upcoming fresh racist and un-American comments made by Republican Vice President (VP) Candidate Senator JD Vance (R-OH) on CBS “Face the Nation” following payout of $2.2 Billion Discrimination Monetary Help Program (DFAP).
“I am proud to have led the fight for over thirty years that led to this long overdue $2.2 Billion assistance for Black and other farmers who were discriminated at USDA prior to 2021. This was not a “farm get advantages” based on skin color given to Black farmers. Decades of discriminatory behavior by the USDA have contributed to significant economic differences between white farmers and farmers of color that directly impact their access to credit.”
Because the Founder and President of the NBFA, I name for Senator JD Vance (R-OH) to factor an apology to Unlit Farmers for his racist, faulty, and anti-Unlit feedback on CBS Face The Population. The NBFA is deeply angry by way of Vance’s feedback and faulty historical past of racial discrimination in america.
Boyd reached out to the CBS Govt Manufacturer, Face the Population, to look at the later section to deal with Vance’s racist, untruthful feedback.
Refer to are excerpts of the transcript of the interview with Sen. JD Vance on “Face the Nation” aired Aug. 11, 2024:
SEN. JD VANCE: “I do think that there’s been this thing in America where we’ve said that we should judge people based on their skin color, based on their immutable characteristics, based on things that they can’t control. I frankly think that unfortunately, a lot of people on the left have leaned into this by trying to categorize people by skin color and then give special benefits or special amounts of discrimination. The Harris Administration, for example, handed out farm benefits to people based on skin color. I think that’s disgraceful. I don’t think we should say, you get farm benefits if you’re a Black farmer, you don’t get farm benefits if you’re a white farmer.”
MARGARET BRENNAN: “But that wasn’t born in the last four years, I mean, one of the–“
SEN. JD VANCE: “No, no not at all, but I think that President Biden and Harris have certainly accelerated it. I don’t think you’ve seen anything like what we’ve seen from Kamala Harris when it comes to handing out government benefits based on people’s immutable characteristics. The actual legal enshrinement of discrimination in this country, we haven’t seen anything like in the last 30 or 40 years. Certainly, back in the 60s and 50s, we all look at that as a period that we wanted to get away from, and in some ways, the Harris Administration has re-implemented it. I think it’s pretty disgraceful. “
