… CalMatters created an interactive tool for calculating how much a person is owed, using formulas in the task force’s final reports and how long a person lived in California during the periods of racial harm.
For instance, a 19-year-old who moved to California in 2018 would be owed at least $149,799 based on the calculations, but a 71-year-old who has lived in California all their life could be owed about $1.2 million. On the other hand, an eligible 28-year-old Californian who moved out of state in 2012 and just moved back could be due around $348,507, according to the calculator...
If all of the eligible African American residents lived in the state only two years, it could mean hundreds of millions of dollars in potential reparations.
Eligible Black residents should not expect cash payments anytime soon.
The state Legislature and Gov. Gavin Newsom will decide on reparations. It’s unclear what they will do with the task force recommendations. The task force was not told to identify funding sources…

Italy owes me for enslaving my Germanic an ancestors … just sayin
What if you’re 1/4096th black?
What about the dang Romans?
That’s who I’m talking about
I need Dave Chappelle’s take on this reparations calculator
They’re all due NOTHING.
Just be glad you’re here in the USA, and not in the turdworld hellhole of Africa.
BTW, none of them can trace directly to slaves departing from Africa or the Mid-East, where black and brown slavers sold humans to Brit slavers, and they shipped them to the 13 Colonies.
Just give me ONE concrete example — just one!
And BTW, they were all demonKKKrats!
Does epidermal melanin percentage figure into the calculations?
Good luck with your taxes, democrats who voted this crap in office.
Spread the word: all native blacks in the USA need to move to California to get millions! Pack up now!
I’m still a little peeved at the Egyptians.
Since cleopatra is now black, I demand reparations!
California is striking a match to a huge national bonfire.
California bull s*** is going to cause more harm and strife than you can shake a stick at.
It will be a national riot that will be uncontrollable, it will drag us into hell.
1861.
Reparations minus what has been spent on African Americans since (for example) the Great Society etc. Also deduct the amount the Union spent (in 2023 dollars) to free the slaves in the Civil War.
Blacks may end up owing
All the Mexicans in Mexico and in the U.S., would be owed a few quadrillion dollars, because, Americans stole their land and they were forced into poverty. That’s worse than slavery.
But, the worst slavery today is via the democratic party, which has forced blacks to follow their political agenda for centuries, and they lot hasn’t improved one inch, even if there are 1% of blacks who have fared better through sports or entertainment. Democrats owed their ‘slaves’ at least $20 million each. But, let’s remind everybody which was/is the party of slavery, and it’s not the republicans.
That sounds like lyrics to something
Hank Williams (Sr) would have written.
“I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry” was one of his well known songs.
It might be a ‘bridge to far’ even for many RATs
It was actually the Portugeuse who started this whole mess in the 1460s.
I’m Jewish. So, my ancestors were slaves in the biblical era as well as in Europe under the nazis.
So, California owes me reparations too.
Don’t ask me for the logic behind that because I’m sure there isn’t any. But since California is paying out for illogical reasons, why not?
