NEW YORK — Kamilah Moore, the chair of California’s Reparations Task Force, is a direct descendant of enslaved people in the United States.
In Palm Springs, hundreds of Black and Mexican families are seeking millions of dollars in restitution for being forcibly evicted from the Section 14 neighborhood in the 1950s and 1960s. The report found that the state of California and the various arms of its government have played an active role in perpetuating systemic racism against Black Californians.
Critics of reparations in the state argue that since the state did not practice slavery, it should not be obligated to atone for racism. About 68% of Americans say descendants of slaves should not be repaid, according to Pew Research Center. Compensation is what is typically thought of as “reparations,” as it refers to cash payments given to recipients.
