    How is this not racist? If there were a service where you could choose to buy directly from white farmers peoples would lose their minds

        If the concern is economic disadvantages, shouldn’t the selectivity be based on income and net worth instead of skin color? Maybe selling products from poor and independent farmers. A portion of every race is economically disadvantaged.

        Edit: I really appreciate your response. I think you described the issue really well.

      There is a service to buy directly from white farmers. There’s a bunch of them, including just going to the grocery store.
