How reparations pioneer Evanston, Ill., is rolling out payments to Black citizens
As talk of reparations ripples through the federal and local governments nationwide, Evanston, Ill., has become the first city in the U.S. to put money in the hands of Black residents affected by years of discrimination.

If you do, you may want to take a genetics test to see if you have any "Black" in you because they have begun reparations there. If you do, you may win a lottery there.
Now when Liz Warren said she was part Indian, she proudly proclaimed after a genetics test that she was 1/1024th part Indian, which justified her claiming being an Indian her entire life, and subsequently benefiting from it by being given special perks for it. However, the Indian nation said that she had to be 2/3 Indian to qualify for the oppressed label. Then she stopped bragging about being an oppressed Indian.
But there is no Black nation in comparison to lay down such arbitrary rules on what makes you racially pure enough to be Indian or Black, or even white.. So if you were like Liz Warren, I would sue the state for a cut if I had 1/1024 part Black in me.
What say you?
