The Black Farmer and Political Economic Plan

THIS MAN IS MORE THAN A FARMER In fact, Ray Warthen is known throughout the world as “the Black Farmer!” Growing up in rural South Florida, Ray learned from his ancestors the importance of the earth. He went to UCF to pursue a degree in engineering but before completion was pegged to work several illustrious projects like the I-4 Ultimate Project, Brightline and others. Ray’s background and certifications in engineering made him one of the few black men ever to lead those monumental projects here and even abroad. Today, Ray is known as the “Black Farmer” because he’s taken the skills learned through engineering, coupled with his love for farming and teaches others now to sustain themselves on the land.

Our guests were Dr. Lavon Bracy, Rashon Young a legislative aide to State Representative Lavon Bracy Davis who loaned his Gen-Z factor and entrepreneurial skills to the conversation, and paired with J. Henry and June Ings, two black business owners in our community. We discussed the principles of persuasive rhetoric and how to be mindful and do your own homework before making your decision at the polls. We brought to light that the discussion that the Project 2025 plan dates back to 1967 and even beyond to disenfranchise the black voter. However, we encourage you to not be dismayed, your VOTE can and will make a difference. Last day to register for the November 5th Presidential Election is October 7th.
