This article talks about the history of USDA's extension work with African Americans from 1914 to 1924. Martin, the USDA's first black extension agent, believes that this work was important in improving the lives of black farmers by increasing crop yields, improving livestock, and developing new markets. Extension workers faced challenges such as racism and segregation, but these were overcome through dedication and hard work. Martin calls for the expansion of extension work to help black farmers achieve economic self-sufficiency and a better quality of life.
