Auction Aims to Move Sharecroppers into Northern Markets
Philadelphia AP Four hundred crates of Georgia corn go to auction at a south Philadelphia fresh produce broker. The event is part of a push by the Minority Farmers and Truckers Association of America to prove sharecroppers can reach northern markets. Raymond Lane of Statesboro Georgia, dubbed the Great American Watermelon Man, walks a watermelon 750 miles to draw attention. He left Georgia May 31 and aims to arrive July 2 to attend a John F. Kennedy Stadium halftime sale. Rev Charles Riley, Northern organizer, says the group seeks access for sharecroppers and tenant farmers to large northern markets.
