By Joan Bailey. In it, she writes about finding land, crop planning, seed saving, and raising animals. Penniman weaves together her experience on the land with the rich, untold history of Black and Latinx farming against a backdrop of what she calls food apartheid. The result is a revolutionary work that opens important doors of opportunity for life and livelihood on the land.
Ask what makes you come alive and go do it, because what the world needs is people who have come alive. It is important to recognize that all of these are privileged positions for so many of us to hold. It would be easy to look around at our predominantly white industry today and feel removed from many of the cultural upheavals happening in the world right now — through bucolic geographic distance, blissful ignorance, or willing disregard. Working to better understand — and join — this dialogue is a necessary step in our country along the path to justice, and equal human and civil rights. Farming While Black is an exploration of these topics, particularly as they relate to our chosen professions and to the history of this industry; it also serves as a critical foundational text for all farmers -- with equal parts practical agricultural guidance, historical context, and spiritual study. The relevance of its teachings extends well beyond the Black community. Her discussions around terracing, broad-based farm ecology, and bed construction highlight permaculture principles that were developed out of necessity over millennia by African farmers, but are recognized as important principles on all farms globally, as increased volatility of our once-predictable climate continues to impact our growing seasons and access to critical natural resources. In addition to farm biology and infrastructure, Leah Penniman includes vital lessons in efficiency, tactics, and logistics that apply to both urban and rural farm management. But perhaps the most important elements of this transformative book are the depth of knowledge and breadth of perspective that Penniman offers around societal racial inequities, and the positive impact that small farms, healthy food systems and regenerative farming practices can have on these.
