Evanston, 60% white, went 90%+ Biden. “Today, the city council of Evanston, IL, will vote to begin distributing $400,000 in grants to Black residents. It would be the first instance of a US city issuing reparations for decades of racist government policies.” https://www.morningbrew.com/da...ants-black-residents | ||

A group of Black residents argue that Evanston’s reparations program is more like Reparations Lite for its narrow focus on housing assistance: "If we're doing reparations, let's do reparations right," said Alderwoman Cicely Fleming in a statement. "Let's not short-change Black people on something they've been waiting centuries for."  Nothing will ever be good enough for some people. Nothing. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Wait, what? |
I'm sure the folks getting the cash will be happy to accept their reparations and never ask for another dime “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

So $400K grant where applicants can receive up to $25K for housing? So, it's feasible that just 16 applicants will receive reparations? 16? P229 | |||

If you identify as black to get paid, and later on find out that you are actually white after all, do you have to give the money back? | |||

Fuck giving money to blacks...for what? They lost to black slavers from their own country, they should have fought to the death. | |||

Evanston, home to Northwestern University and its Pritzker School of Law, so named after present Ill Gov Pritzker and his wife donated $100,000,000. The same Gov. Pritzker who pushed for legal recreational weed in Illinois. I'm getting dizzy. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

No, it would be yet another example of open and blatant racism. They can package it anyway they like, but this is the definition of racism, which is right in line with the way current day liberals operate. The country has invested about a trillion dollars into the black community over the past 50 year and what exactly do we have to show for it? A weaker, poorer, and far less valuable black community. So yeah, let's throw even more money down that black hole. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

I demand reparations for all the businesses the black community burned down, all the cars they vandalized and all the overtime the police had to be paid to try and stop them. | |||

After impact research and consulting fees that 400k will be whittled down to 5k maybe and if not that money will be given to the council members relatives and friends. | |||
