There’s this non-profit that specifically connects produce retailers with black farmers. I feel like they probably had great intentions but every time I think about it I go “that feels a little too close doesn’t it?”

Kind of implies it’s going to be handpicked as well, considering they’re taking randoms off the street.

They even used a black person for the photo. Seems too obvious to be real.

It’s Barbados, more than 95% of the population is black.
So not having a black person in the photo would have been weird.
