#1,464 - CA Governor Newsom considers $569 Billion ($223K/Person) in reparations for eligible Black decedents

A nine-member Reparations Task Force has estimated that Black Californians could receive more than $223,000 each in reparations for the enduring economic effects of racism and slavery, more than two years on from the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the police.

California has become the first U.S. state to require its agencies to present a separate demographic category for descendants of enslaved people.

The New York Times reported on Thursday that the taskforce, which was formed by a law signed by Democratic Governor  Gavin Newsom in 2020, has spent months traveling across the West coast state to learn about the effects of these policies.

Those eligible for the reparations, the taskforce said in a March 2022 report , would be descendants of enslaved African Americans or of a "free Black person living in the United States prior to the end of the 19th century."
