Should Louisiana try to attract some of the South African immigrants fleeing genocide?

Louisiana's population has been suffering and we have plenty of fertile farm land that's under utilized.
Could be a great opportunity to bring in some American loving folks who are productive members of society and will immediately boost our economy.
I'm not sure how exactly you could incentivize them to move to Louisiana. Maybe buy some of Bill Gates land he bought along the delta and offer it to the South Africans if they successfully farm it and contribute positively to our economy

From what I saw it seems they’re being mostly settled in the mid west.
Would be cool.

I don't understand why this would be a bad thing snd it's not like if they buy 40 acres in Ferriday then they're going to be murdered for being white.

They’re already here and farming on visas, my farmer has been using them exclusively for a couple years. They work hard, are smart & he doesn’t need interpreters to u destined them.
I talked to some in a corner field in NODAK ten years ago.

Only if they are eligible for African American benefits.

There have been quite a few South African fellows working in South Louisiana's sugar cane industry for some time now. The more the merrier IMO
They are very skilled in the farming world

Why would they want to leave a genocidal country for an unsafe area of the USA?

Yes. Get them some land in the Felicianas. It would become an agricultural Eden.

I’d welcome them over 100% of other refugees.

They just left Africa. Do they deserve any more punishment ?

I actually know a family from South Africa who moved to the north shore area. So there is some coming this way.

They're fleeing racial violence.

I'm not saying ask them to come to New Orleans East or North Baton Rouge
