RFK Jr. Pledges $5 Billion Reparations for Black Farmers

Kennedy supports reallocating funds blocked by courts to address historic discrimination in agriculture.

RFK Jr. aims to reintroduce a $5 billion reparations plan for black farmers, initially part of Biden's American Rescue Plan.
The original plan was halted by courts after white farmers challenged its constitutionality.
Kennedy argues the funds are an entitlement, not a handout, addressing past discrimination.
The proposal has faced criticism from opponents who claim it discriminates against white farmers.
Kennedy's stance aligns with his broader campaign promises to support marginalized communities.
