Summit and Webinar: April 5th and Apr 17, 2019. Food Security. HBCUs & Other Land-grant institutions and food systems
Following statement from unknown author……………
“…..Here in Kentucky we have two land grant colleges. One is the Kentucky State University-KSU
which is an HBCU and formed in 1890. The
other is University of Kentucky-UK which is an HWCU or historically white
college or University and formed in 1862.
The inequities and disparities Within These two land-grant
colleges are too numerous to mention here. But UK has all types of conferences,
events and workshops for Kentucky farmers but can very seldom find more than
three or four people of color farmers to participate in their many events that
are so well funded. However on the other
hand with less funding less staff KSU invariably at its fall conference and
other events may attract 100 to 200 black, Latino Asian-American and women
farmers.
This historical discrimination and exclusion by HWCUs that
have extension offices in every county combined with the exclusion and
discrimination by the USDA in its many forms is what led to the various
Pickford cases…..”

“We are now faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We
are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding
conundrum of life and history there is such a thing as being too late.
Procrastination is still the thief of time. Life often leaves us standing bare,
naked and dejected with a lost opportunity . . . This may well be mankind’s
last chance to choose between chaos or community.” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., ‘Where
Are We Going From Here: Chaos or
Community’.
