BIDWELL, OHIO - January 2000: Bill Howard uses his tractor to drive in his herd of dairy cows in for a milking at his farm in Bidwell, Ohio, in January 2000. "Years ago there was a lot of black farmers around here. They pushed them out --75-to-80-years-ago this whole section of hills was full of them," Bill said. "They died off, their offspring moved away and sold out to the white guys." (Photo by Jeffrey Sauger)
