San Francisco’s reparations committee has proposed paying each Black longtime resident $5 million and granting total debt forgiveness due to the decades of "systematic repression" faced by the local Black community.
The San Francisco African American Reparations Advisory Committee, which advises the city on developing a plan for reparations for Black residents, released its draft report last month to address reparations – not for slavery, since California was not technically a slave state, but "to address the public policies explicitly created to subjugate Black people in San Francisco by upholding and expanding the intent and legacy of chattel slavery."
"While neither San Francisco, nor California, formally adopted the institution of chattel slavery, the tenets of segregation, white supremacy and systematic repression and exclusion of Black people were codified through legal and extralegal actions, social codes, and judicial enforcement," the draft states.
The draft plan includes a long list of financial recommendations for Black San Francisco residents, including a one-time, lump sum payment of $5 million to each eligible individual.

Wait a couple of years and pay it to them.
They might be able to buy a loaf of bread with it by then.
Or not.

How did they say it with a straight face? Why not $20 million? Why not a billion?

Not enough...$25 million.
Here’s the thing...as much as you can dish out...the whole thing will disappear in a matter of two or three years across the US. 90-percent will have nothing left and remember the reparations as the greatest loss period in US history.

Reparations for being jailed during the ‘war on drugs’?

San Fran's reparations committee proposes $5 million to each Black longtime resident, total debt forgiveness ROFL! Why not? Just print more money and pay it! That's apparently the mentality of the FOOLS that passed this garbage!
To: E. Pluribus Unum
I recommend $5 million to me, plus all debt forgiveness.
Yeah, that’s the ticket. Sounds great!
Where’s my check?

Don’t give anybody any ideas. Because there’s somebody stupid enough out there to think that’s a solution.

I think it should be made available to all black residents of California.
Even those who will arrive. Soon. Before the end of the year.
If you’ve ever thought of living in Sunny California, now is the time, and $5M is waiting.

San Francisco’s reparations committee has proposed paying each Black longtime resident $5 million...I think each "black" short time resident should immediately "Peacefully Protest" according to Antifa and BLM standards, in San Francisco, continually, until this Racist discrimination is corrected for all residents.

“...since California was not technically a slave state...”
No, California wasn’t a slave state, period. The slave states that then existed traded their lock on the Senate in exchange for a Fugitive Slave Act that compelled every American to aid in the recapture of runaway slaves. California, with its gold was too valuable to not become a state. As it turned out, the Fugitive Slave Act created a lot more resentment in the North toward the South’s ‘peculiar institution’.
But the descendants of early Chinese immigrants have a lot more cause for complaint than black residents of SF and Cal. The laws of the time explicitly targeted their ancestors. But of course the Chinese and Japanese somehow were able to overcome the adversity faced by their grandparents but current black residents apparently have not. It is not allowed to ask why that is.

Which means anything they want it to mean.
