The purpose of this toolkit is not necessarily to perform outreach to certain populations. Instead, the focus is on combating White supremacy and racism as a whole in farmers market settings. We believe that the information shared and changes that come about from this toolkit will benefit a multitude of races and ethnicities. Taking this purpose into account, FMC, together with our lead consultants Sagdrina Jalal and Nedra Deadwyler, felt that beginning with a work group made up of Black folks would allow us to dive more deeply into the lived experiences of a specific population that has a long and traumatic history with agriculture, land ownership, and food systems in this country. Moreover, recognizing that race itself began as an invention to facilitate the violence of slavery and colonialism, we believe that a focus on combating anti-blackness will help to lay the groundwork for undermining race as an outgrowth of oppression in our markets more broadly. There will certainly be opportunities for additional consultation and feedback outside Black communities throughout the continued development of this toolkit. We have also discussed convening separate work groups specific to Indigenous, Latinx, and other communities in future phases of the toolkit. The focus of these work groups would be to bring additional perspectives and lived experience to create further sections of this toolkit.
