Berkeley Unified School District is aiming to become the first school district in the U.S. to offer reparations to Black students following a task force meeting.

It could cost California more than $800 billion to compensate Black residents for generations of over-policing, disproportionate incarceration and housing discrimination, economists have told a state panel considering reparations.

This announcement followed a nine-member task force formed by Gov. Gavin Newsom providing projections for how to provide reparations for slavery to Black residents in December. The team found that to close the gap caused by housing discrimination would requireEstimates from other economists found that enacting reparations could cost the state approximately $800 billion, nearly triple the state’s $300 billion annual budget.

"However, no ‘true’ reparations program for descendants of enslaved people currently exists at the federal, state, or local level. It is time for that to change; BUSD can and should lead such a change," the website read.Payments of $5 million to every eligible Black adult, the elimination of personal debt and tax burdens, guaranteed annual incomes of at least $97,000 for 250 years and homes in San Francisco for just $1 a family.

They deserve nothing!!!

What does this mean? Where the hell do they get the money for it. Such BS.

This is wrong on so many levels and is sending the wrong message to the youth of our nation!

Next, the Democrats will be giving them their own schools and drinking fountains, maybe even reserved seats in the back of buses .Just like the Democrats did in the old days.

How about reparations for all the crimes committed

What about us Native Americans lol

Ridiculous

If everyone non black leaves CA, then who pays?

This will collapse the state but tell me it’s not intentional. The state of CA will look like a third world communist country.

This beyond absurd! Neither CA nor SF's insane, baseless efforts to redistribute public funds to persons who were never slaves based on their melanine/race/ethnicity (no legal authority, no actual responsibility, 14A vio) is illegal. WTF?! BUSD board is desperate for virtue.

Just what we voted for with Governor Newsom and Joe Biden. Keep voting blue no matter who. One day it will be your turn to receive reparations if you vote Democrat. 🤑🤑🤑

What about the indigenous peoples? They are human too! Right? Or, do you guys still think of them as animals.

The Nigerian Prince that’s been calling me bout my car’s extended warranty needs to get here asap and get his cut of free money 😂

Damn... I need to get myself skin change to become black. Lmao.

Divide divide divide….

This shit is goddamn stupid

What else could you do if you intentionally wanted to start a race war?

It’s a wonderful idea! And a great way for Berkeley’s white, Asian, Hispanic and Native American neighbors and fellow taxpayers to pony up for descendants of slaves. Probably will include either 100% of the black population or a lot of left out, pissed off non slave blacks.

Like what, free lunch?

Shouldn't even be ina rush. All they gonna do is kill every BLK person for that reparations money. Mightest we'll keep waiting till times are Betta

Oh oh…Shakedown!

Berkeley Unified School District Considering Reparations for Black Students, to Create Task ForceThe Berkeley Unified School District could be the first in the nation to offer reparations for Black students. Key word COULD BE. In other realistic terms no it won’t happen. Stop already. The best reparations would be tough love to make sure they can do math and read at grade level. Progressive educators have let black and brown people down because of the soft bigotry of low expectations.
