Decades ago, in the Chicago suburb of Evanston, Cordelia Clark ran a restaurant out of her kitchen and parked cabs for her taxi company in her backyard because Black residents were effectively barred from owning or renting storefronts in town.
Now Evanston is poised to become the first U.S. city to offer reparation money to Black residents whose families suffered lasting damage from decades of discriminatory practices.
"It's about time that something has come from the hard work of African Americans in this city, proving that they should be treated as anyone else," said Clark's great-granddaughter, Delois Robinson, 58.
Evanston's initial approach to reparations is narrow and targeted. The city council, which has already committed $10 million over a decade to the effort, will vote on Monday to begin with a $400,000 round of payments. The first phase will provide $25,000 to a small number of eligible Black residents for home repairs, down payments or mortgage payments in a nod toward historically racist housing policies.
The program could become a model for other cities and states grappling with whether to pursue their own reparations programs. The burgeoning national movement has gained traction amid a reckoning on racial inequity following the police killing of George Floyd and other Black Americans last year.
In Congress, a bill that would establish a national reparations commission to study the issue has drawn around 170 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives, all Democrats. President Joe Biden has not endorsed the legislation but says he supports a study. Advocates plan to lobby the White House for executive action if the bill, as expected, fails to pass a divided Senate.

Oh, yes, we Americans (of all ethnicities) should support reparations.
I live in Los Angeles.
Many people in the entertainment industry own beautiful homes in this general area.
Hopefully, the stars will sell their homes and give the proceeds to ethnicity X.
Or they could just gift their mansions to people who are currently living in underserved communities.
Also, some people should take an early retirement so that their jobs can be redistributed to the victims of systemic racism.
We are all so lucky to have Mr. Biden & Ms. Harris as our leaders. They are such kind and gentle people.
Thanks to reparations, our country will soon become a land of peace and happiness and unbounded harmony.
We owe a big debt of gratitude to the 80,000,000 people who helped to usher in this golden age.
True, but it isn't wrong to point out the likelihood that this action will satisfy no one nor help make race relations better. Any money spent will simply be taken without any gratitude and then the hand will be back for more... always, MORE.Whether you like it or not--- it is happening in Evanston....which is, I think, one of the points, eh? If the majority in a polity wish to spend their money in a certain way..that's really none of our business.Umno.This is a bit interesting--and promising...as people come to their own conclusions and effect their unique local solutions!
