　　策展前言：
一直以来，黑人农民遭受了很多苦难，但是为了获取土地，并保有土地使用权，他们仍然奋起反抗。现已71岁高龄的詹姆斯·麦吉尔是第三代养猪农，50多年来他一直在农场工作。从越南战场回国之后，1976年到1987年间，他和詹姆斯·麦吉尔合伙经营了一个320英亩的农场。但是美国农业部贷款机构声称他们的做法可疑，夺走了他们的一切。自那之后，他们一直在为重新获得土地或土地赔偿而奔走。目前，他还在父亲留下的5英亩土地上经营农场，这是土地被夺走时，父亲努力保留下来的。詹姆斯.麦吉尔的故事并不是农民中的个例，在非裔美国黑人农民中尤其常见。
Project Introduction: Black farmers have fought to acquire and maintain land throughout the country, despite having to face extreme difficulty along the way. James McGill is a third generation pig farmer, and at 71 he has been farming for over 50 years. After returning from the war in Vietnam, he along with a partner managed a 320 acre farm, McGill Farms, from 1976 to 1987. They lost it all due to alleged suspect practices by a USDA lending agency and they have been fighting to regain or be compensated for the land ever since. He currently still farms on his father's property who himself dealt with land loss but was able to retain just 5 acres of the land. Mr. McGill's story is not an uncommon one for farmer, especially African-American farmers in the United States.
