We Are Each Other's Harvest: Celebrating African American Farmers, Land, and Legacy
Description
Through essays, poems, photographs, conversations, and firsthand accounts, this illuminating anthology explores African Americans’ enduring relationship with land, farming, and self-determination—from emancipation to the present day. It examines the dramatic loss of Black-owned farmland and the systemic discrimination that has shaped generations of agricultural life, while honoring the farmers who continue to cultivate their land and communities. The collection also introduces a new generation working toward food justice, food sovereignty, and reparations, revealing farming as both a source of struggle and a powerful legacy of resilience. Together, these diverse voices offer a moving portrait of land, memory, identity, and hope.
