Admitting the Unthinkable
19th January 2023
Institutional momentum continues to build in wealthy parts of the country where blacks were historically least oppressed by slavery and Jim Crow for cashing in white guilt over George Floyd as racial reparations before whites wise up (or cynical Asians and Hispanics take over).
For example, posh Evanston, Illinois (where 91 percent voted for Biden in 2020), has already handed out $25,000 reparation vouchers to sixteen black residents, with The Washington Post complaining that’s not fast enough. And the state of Illinois (Biden 58 percent) is gearing up its African Descent-Citizens Reparations Commission.
Likewise, the state of California (Biden 63 percent) has a Reparations Task Force assigned to come up with a proposed payout to blacks (not that California was ever a slave state), with the chairwoman currently talking about six or even seven figures.
