  • Shirley Shirrod, the USDA, Pigford and racism

    Willie Brown, San Francisco's famous, or infamous, mayor of yore, put it succinctly and bluntly:

    ‘As an old pro,’ Brown acknowledged, “I know that you don’t fire someone without at least hearing their side of the story unless you want them gone in the first place.’ Brown observed that Sherrod had been a thorn in the USDA’s side for years, that many had objected to her hiring, and that she had been ‘operating a community activist organization not unlike ACORN.’ Although Brown does not go into detail, he alludes to a class action lawsuit against the USDA in which she participated some years ago.”
    The Pigford case, which has not been well reported in the mainstream media, is a bit of an eye opener. Report is attached.

    There is now a new lawsuit, filed by Latino's, for similar reasons. They are demanding 1.33 billion dollars from the US government.
