Episode 26 November 2, 2022: The Plight of Black Farmers in the US The plight of modern-day Black farmers in the United States can be traced back to the 40 Acres Promise after Emancipation, Reconstruction, Black Codes/Jim Crow, and the Great Migration. The question is what will the future bring? Recently Civil Rights Attorrney Benjamin Crump filed a class action suit on behalf of non-white farmers against the US government for a breach of debt relief - Black Farmers SUE Federal Gov't On $4B Debt Relief Program. This is the topic of discussion with the President of the National Black Farmers Association, Mr. John Boyd, in a conversation with Roland Martin. Join Anita, Mavis, and Gail in a discussion of the plight of modern-day Black farmers through the lens of history and the absence of trust in the ongoing fight against systemic racism in the business of farming.

the SHIFT Podcast with Trish Campbell & Diane McClay: Perspective & Our Power to Change We are coming up on our one-year anniversary of the SHIFT Podcast - Perspective and Our Power to Change, and we're taking a look back, embracing the pause and reflection on where we have been this past year. We'll talk about where we have been, what we have discovered.... the lessons - what we have learned, what we have learned about each other, and how our perspective has shifted doing this podcast together. We are embracing the pause... the chance to reflect on where we have been, bringing things into awareness, so we can be more empowered in where we are going - wherever that might be! Positive change begins with each of us individually. Together we create a collective SHIFT. The SHIFT STARTS NOW! ********************************************************************************************** On the SHIFT, we use multiple perspectives to effect positive change within ourselves and our communities. We create a reframe on traditionally accepted norms to generate personal freedom, empowerment, self-love and self-care. We discover new wisdom and learnings by stretching our existing understanding of social protocols, health and spiritual practices, personal belief systems, celebrations and cultural influences. Viewing life through multiple perspectives helps us find new tools and teachings that can support us in healing, in understanding ourselves better, and realizing the potential in our self-actualization. As we journey through perspective, we learn ways to reclaim our power from where we have historically given it away.
