We will soon find out what reparations could look like for Black Californians with heritage back to an enslaved person. Ahead of Saturday's final vote, ABC7 spoke with several members of the task force to get a better understanding of the recommendations.
Here's what reparations would look like for Black Californians as the task force prepares for the final vote in Oakland Saturday.The California State Reparations Task force has been at work for almost two years now studying and developing reparations proposals for Black Californians that can trace their heritage back to an enslaved person. Saturday, in the penultimate meeting in Oakland, the group will vote on what reparations could look like.
The job of the task force has been two-fold. First, study slavery and its lingering negative effects on African Americans. Second, to develop proposals for remedies for the atrocities of that harm through policy changes and potentially cash payments. "The idea that California has a role to play in this is, is actually very straightforward," he said. "We think about lingering effects, we are thinking about things like Jim Crow racism. We're thinking about the use of eminent domain in the dismantling of African American communities, in many ways to facilitate the development of the state."
