$5 Million Reparations Payment for Black Residents Not Enough, San Francisco Official Says
A San Francisco advisory committee’s recommendation that the city pay out hefty reparations to the city’s longtime black residents does not go far enough toward making things right, a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors told National Review on Tuesday.
Supervisor Shamann Walton, who wrote the legislation that formed the committee two years ago, said that the proposed $5 million payment per qualifying person is actually “much less than a lot of the projections that people say black people should receive for reparations here in the United States.”
“You can Google a lot of the reparations work that has been done and look at the monetary formulas that people have put together and most certainly the 5 million is a very minuscule number compared to a lot of research that has been done over the past couple of decades, quite frankly,” said Walton, who has represented the city’s 10th district since 2019 and previously served as board president.

The Bee got me again!
Old Shamann Walton can pay for this BS out of his personal banking account.
Otherwise, he can go pound sand and then ESAD...the sooner, the better.
How about 50 trillion gabillion Zimbabwean dollars?
At the current rate of exchange, we can provide that to every black American for about $1.50 in American money.
I think it is perfectly fair that the fascist Democratic party of California pay those abused slaves 5 million each. Each should show up at the courthouse and show off their whip marks to receive the money.
Nono of them were slaves. Their suffering has nothing to do with anything but themselves. The very notion of “reparations” is ludicrous.
I think if they asked for FREE tickets to go back to Africa, I would be eager to contribute.
Why don’t they just claim to be Ukrainians? - They will get whatever they want!
They should be awarded their own country in Africa
Maybe we should just give California to Mexico after all. Then Mexico can pay them.
Sigh. We're gonna need another wall.
"Research." "Work." LOL...these brain dead idiots don't have a clue what those words mean.
I can put together a "monetary formula," too. X = 0 where "X" is what they should get paid. I spent a lot of hours doing research and working hard to come up with that monetary formula.
Or how about "Wealth = Getting off your lazy ass and working"?
They can call their new country Complaintation
“California is the place you ought to be, so the loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly. Hills, that is. Idiots, morons, movie stars.”
blacks giving out blank checks to blacks is a bad idea
When all the aging baby boomer wokeists in the Marina and Pacific Heights figure out they iz comn’ fo them, you won’t believe the backlash on this.
And the Chinese who now own the Sunset? Try telling them they’re gonna pay the extortionists.
This should be hilarious.
Blacks didn’t really “build” much. The Chinese built the railroads. Germans, Swedes, Irish much more.
Golly. Freeloaders demanding more free stuff for themselves. Please do it San Fran. The unimaginable mayhem that will come from this will be absolutely delightful to witness.
The program should have never ended...
Formerly enslaved people departed on journey to Africa (Feb 6, 1820)The first organized immigration of freed enslaved people to Africa from the United States departs New York harbor on a journey to Freetown, Sierra Leone, in West Africa. The immigration was largely the work of the American Colonization Society, a U.S. organization founded in 1816 by Robert Finley to return formerly enslaved African people to Africa. However, the expedition was also partially funded by the U.S. Congress, which in 1819 had appropriated $100,000 to be used in returning displaced Africans, illegally brought to the United States after the abolishment of the slave trade in 1808, to Africa.
The program was modeled after British’s efforts to resettle formerly enslaved people in Africa following England’s abolishment of the slave trade in 1772. In 1787, the British government settled 300 formerly enslaved people and 70 white prostitutes on the Sierra Leone peninsula in West Africa. Within two years, most members of this settlement had died from disease or warfare with the local Temne people. However, in 1792, a second attempt was made when 1,100 formerly enslaved people, mostly individuals who had supported Britain during the American Revolution and were unhappy with their postwar resettlement in Canada, established Freetown under the leadership of British abolitionist Thomas Clarkson.
How much does Sam the Shaman project? I will not pay for Unfree Republics uniparty blather.
because it will not stop here.
the initial payment will not be enough. mark my words here. once the left senses weakness they will go for the throat.
the indians will be next.
it has the potential to plunge the country into utter chaos...possibly CW2.
