NEFOC Land Trust Black/Indigenous PoC Reparations & Reconciliation Wealth Redistribution Map
We are currently reworking the Reparations program to expand it and create better outreach and administration. Check back in 2024 for an updated map, application, and networking/fundraising opportunities!
Repair.
The food system was built on the stolen land and stolen labor of Indigenous, Black, Latinx, Asian, and people of color. Members of the Northeast Farmers of Color Network are claiming our sovereignty and calling for the redistribution of wealth, and reparations of land and resources so that we can begin to advance meaningful reconciliation, grow nourishing food, steward our beloved homelands once again, and reclaim our health and well-being.
To Give* to BIPOC Farmers
*The Reparations Map is a unidirectional, anonymous tool to GIVE to BIPOC farm projects, not to extract resources or labor, or for organizational outreach to BIPOC for anything that doesn’t offer concrete financial or infrastructural resources. Please do NOT reach out to Reparations Map projects with requests for your organizations’ research needs, for sales offers, or Equity, Justice, Diversity, or Inclusion initiatives. Please respect the privacy of the Reparations Map farmers. Any such behavior will not be tolerated.
It’s simple. If you have resources, contact the farmer directly in their profile to share. Please contact us with your reparations success stories so we can celebrate this healing work with you.
Please note that there is a larger, national effort for reparations being coordinated by the National Black Food and Justice Alliance http://www.blackfoodjustice.org/, and the map is complementary to that effort and not a substitute for it.
