Reparations - Coming to a City Near You - David Lockmiller - 02-27-2023 01:16 PM

The Washington Post reported today: "San Francisco debates reparations for Blacks"

Tasked with calculating how much San Francisco should pay its Black residents for decades of discrimination, a government-appointed panel didn’t develop a mathematic formula. Instead, over the last year and a half, its 15 members have been studying the city’s history.

[T]he city’s African American Reparations Advisory Committee recently recommended that qualifying Black residents receive $5 million each in reparations.

I do not know if any former members of the San Francisco School Board who wanted to rename Abraham Lincoln High School for "just" cause are members of this government-appointed panel.
