Cycling Through History: Empowering Black Farmers

Join us as we talk with Dr. Lisa Nelson, a passionate cycling advocate who founded The Black Farm Tour to highlight black farmers, economic empowerment, and community. Inspired by her work with Triangle Bike Works, she turned long-distance cycling into a tool for education, connection, and change. Now in its fourth year, the tour brings riders together to explore history, support black-owned farms, and build a stronger future. Tune in to hear how she’s using cycling to reclaim narratives and create lasting impact. Learn more at www.trianglebikeworks.org, www.blackfarmtour.us, and https://youtu.be/P2r_TOVqmrE.
