California Officials Create Reparations Task Force to Address Historic Slavery

June 2, 2021

California officials put together a task force to study and recommend proper reparations to African American residents to address the effects of slavery and systemic racism, holding its inaugural meeting on Tuesday.

In April, the House Judiciary Committee passed a federal slavery reparations bill which is expected to face opposition. Officials first introduced the bill in Congress in 1989 and notes the government at the time failed to provide newly-freed slaves with 40 acres of land.

Shirley Weber, California’s Secretary of State, authored the state legislation that is responsible for creating the task force. She said the bill is an opportunity for America to right the wrong that continues today, affecting residents with racial disparities in wealth, health, and education

Retarded half-ass pseudo-marxist measures and health and education are part of the superstructure of Capitalism. Only the rich get quality health care etc..most people whether black or white are not rich.

It's a predictable gimmick to con slow people. "They're gonna put y'all back in chains, and, if you vote for Trump, you ain't Black!" What if you're descended from both Black slaves and White "slave-owners"? Do you pay reparations to yourself because you oppressed yourself?
