Suggested plan for reparations: $500B+ to be disbursed over 20 years to a reparations council of black leaders from different areas, from businesspeople to educators and social workers. Money to be used for purposes of educational and economic renewal as determined by the council

Feel like reparations is going to be a Really tricky policy to make that ppl will actually vote 4. Pass UBI for everyone struggling at hands of our corporatist society and draft a better reparations policy. Nd alota "black leaders" are bought so gota b careful bout who's at helm

You should ask for separations not reparations

This money to be better utilised to rebuild areas, homes, businesses and livelihoods destroyed in the current riots. 👍👍

Seriously everyone - the fact that anyone is suggesting reparations and is trying to come up with ideas on how to implement it is a big deal. Don't poop on the idea - suggest ways to build on it.

Less concerned about the waste of money than the “black leaders” designated by white liberals.

Personally think it should be cash payments. Starting now. 500/month for any person who has having suffered due to slavery. Self policed. Time to trust our people. So we can trust our government.
