marcelWhistleblowers! Is presented in co-ordination with Marcel Reid and the Whistleblowers Annual Summit in Washington D.C.

Hosted by Marti Oakley

Tonight we will be discussing the ongoing theft of land from black farmers and the failure of the USDA to make good on the Pigford Settlement Agreement, even years after the ruling.  We will also be discussing the continued delays in USDA responses to complaints filed against the USDA for failure to comply with their own regulations and rules.

At issue is the land!!

Our Guests:

Lawrence Lucas

Mr. Lucas was the former President of the USDA Coalition of Minority Employees, beginning in 1994.  His career as a government employee began as a political appointee during the Carter Administration. He retired after 32 years of service.

Michael Stoval

Joining him will be Michael Stoval of Alabama who has been instrumental in bringing attention to the institutional failures of the USDA and DOJ.  Mr Stovel will talk about the continuing neglect and worsening of agency failures within the USDA that has worsened over the years under many administrations, including the former Obama and now current, Trump administration.
