It would look like hundred dollar Happy Meals.
It looks like expensive cars, jewelry, clothing, and a whole lot of drugs and alcohol.
I identify as a black Californian.
It’ll be continually funded just like Ukraine
Bling!
It would look like what Chappelle’s skit on this looked like. They’d all be broke within a year.
Let the civil suits fly against the blacks with deep pockets for damage to civil society. The suits get so creative these days.
All reparations should be paid by the members of the political party that instituted all those racist policies
Illogical and irrational emotional rhetoric.
They make o sense and “argument”, such as it exists, makes little sense.
Take money from people who never owned slaves and whose ancestors never owned slaves and give it to people who were never slaves and whose ancestors were never slaves in the name of reparations for slavery?
Where are the reparations for guys like me who are descended from Civil War Union soldiers?
A commission of 9 people, of which 8 are black and one is Japanese-American. That should have a lot of credibility with the great majority of Californians who are neither black nor descended from someone who was interned in WWII. Whites and Hispanics together are about 75% of the population of California and Asians about 15% (most of them not Japanese-Americans), and only 5% or so African American.
How many white or Hispanic Californians feel personally guilty over injustices which may have been suffered by black Californians' ancestors?
Part of the reparations is relief from civil torts.
They were racist, so you get punished.
“What Reparations Would Look Like for Black Californians”
Well, given California’s large history of slavery...
So here is a poll. Who is worse AP or ABC?
Regarding reparations to a specific group: I’m sure that the original native population of kalifornia, that had their land stolen by everyone else, has reservations.
