Black Californians are owed $800 billion for reparations due to generations of over-policing, disproportionate incarceration and housing discrimination, according to economists who are working with the state panel considering the payments.
A previous model, announced earlier this month, estimated that $640 billion would be due in payments to black residents in the Golden State.
In their report, the consultants suggest the state task force 'err on the side of generosity' and consider a down-payment with more money to come as more evidence becomes available.

White slavery by voted officials.
Of course, there’s unconstitutionality and economic impossibility, but never mind that
I don’t think California was ever a slave state.
When blacks realize they aren’t getting anything, they’re going to nuts. The progressives opened pandora’s box, and now they can’t close it. What is the coverage of the “Reparation Riots of 2024” going to look like?
Planning for the transfer of wealth before our very eyes. Where is the backlash?
There will be none. You will be called a racist and cancelled if you protest.
Like the high speed rail, it’s going to cost a lot and never get done.
The Golden State becomes the Golden Brown State.
This is really just funny.
We are too far gone. Our woke politicians, and the American people in general, have no concept of money, wealth, how it is obtained, or the quickly draining resources of the American Empire.
Personally, I blame the Federal Reserve and our entire system of printed, fiat, manipulated money and interest rates and the bloated government and debt it supports. But that’s just me.
>> I don’t think California was ever a slave state.
It wasn’t, unless you count wage slaves. ;-)
White woke guilt run amok!
But this will NOT go over well with California’s significant hispanic and asian population.
Well, the FIRST thing CA should do is take ALL the pension money from non-AA CA state workers, including teachers, and put it in the Reparations fund. After all, making amends for racism is far more important than having a comfortable retirement. And since most CA state workers are flaming libs, how could they possibly oppose that?
I simply don’t remember who said it, but it was a white guy several years ago, I believe.
He said, paraphrasing, give the black people all the reparations they want. Give them millions because in 6 months, all that money will be in the hands of white people anyway...
Well, it least being on this “task force” is keeping these idiots off the streets. That they’re likely being paid big bucks for their “expertise” and “wisdom”, that’s SF’s problem.
I think this is all a ruse. There is no way that much cash could be dug up anywhere. So then you will have millions of black that think the whites owe them billions and won’t pay up.
What about the millions of immigrants that haven’t even been in the country 200 yrs? Do the Asians have to fork over money to the blacks too?
Just the past slave owners should pay. Whoops they have been dead a long time. Should the Northerners who fought to free the slave and lost family members in the war be paid too?
“… When blacks realize they aren’t getting anything, they’re going to nuts.…”

No they won’t. Just like donkeys going for the out of reach carrot dangled in front of them, they’ll just keep pulling the DemocRATS’ vote wagon. The “carrot” will always be the promise held out for the gullible… but it will always be out of reach.
Of course, there’s unconstitutionality and economic impossibility, but never mind that
In short, It’s a Trap.
You must go to Zimbabwe and establish residence to collect!
Wouldn’t another Civil War in the U.S. be a lot cheaper? I don’t see where any white U.S. taxpayer owes those bass turds a penny. We didn’t own slaves, the never picked cotton. They can KMA.
