re: #12 Gus 802

Here’s a transcript I found.

Chapter 12 was enacted in 1986. This happened to her in 1986. She testifies that this experience “opened her eyes” in that it wasn’t about being black and white but about being poor.

We never get to learn what happened because it seems as though she felt guilty for taking this farmer to “one of his own” back in 1986. My guess would be that he got screwed over.

Why would the USDA fire her? It appears that she is making a reflective point on how she use to see certain things and how she has grown to see the real underlying problem.
