San Francisco's proposed reparations plan, which would give $5 million to each eligible Black person, will be publicly discussed for the first time at the city's Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday afternoon.

Details: To be eligible for reparations, a person would need to be at least 18 years old and have identified as Black or African American on public documents for at least 10 years.

They may also need to prove they were born in San Francisco between 1940 and 1996 and lived in the city for at least 13 years, and were displaced, or a descendant of someone displaced, from the city by urban renewal.
State of play: The city is trying to make amends for previous actions that ultimately led to a lack of opportunities and displacement of a portion of the city's Black population.

San Francisco's urban renewal of the 1960s and '70s, for example, decimated the Black population in San Francisco's Fillmore District, an area once known as the Harlem of the West due to its bustling jazz scene.
The city's redevelopment of the Fillmore shuttered 883 businesses, displaced 4,729 households and damaged the lives of nearly 20,000 people, according to the reparations committee.

Black people made up 13.4% of the city's population in 1970, according to U.S. Census data. That has dropped to just 5.7%, according to 2021 Census population estimates.
Catch up quick: San Francisco Supervisor Shamann Walton in 2020 wrote the since unanimously approved legislation to establish the African American Reparations Advisory Committee.

SF is the most wacko Left city in the most wacko Left state in America.

But, who are we to talk, with $30 billion a year wasted on black people or people claiming to be black. More than a thousand taxpayer-funded organisations doing NOTHING for black people in remote areas.

Now, the Voice!

We are the most wacko Left country in the wacko Left West.

Let's get our own house in order instead of bothering with foreigners.

Loads of money wasted on pretenders & con artists but not a Cent to the actual real needy !
Yes, what a loving society. Millions to kick a ball or put on an act for a camera or whine an excuse of a song but peanuts for hard working folks !

While the Socialists are playing their cruel games and generally wrecking Australia as fast as they can, the fact that some vital medications are not available in Australia - thanks to the manufacture of them being outsourced by politicians - is going unnoticed, mainly because the lunatics in charge are young enough not to need them.

I’ve accidentally discovered the referred to publication above Axios.Com, which has proved itself a clear window through which to observe the mad world of woke at work in the real world; IE San Francisco in this instance.

The sponsor is Wells Fargo Bank; An atypically woke corporate enterprise which have become the leaders in pushing the unworkable social engineering madness of the powerful elite in the US.

The idiocy of giving every eligible black citizen a golden handshake of five million US dollars, is one of the pinnacle moments in the idiotic pursuit of the socially destructive wealthy rulers of the once great US of A, who also appear to be equally as keen to plunge the globe into catastrophic wars that risk the physical annihilation of the rest of us.

The whole of this mad proposal needs to be read for a complete context, which includes the chestnut of defunding the police for the cash-up of affordability to fund the mad scheme.

"The idiocy of giving every eligible black citizen a golden handshake of five million US dollars, is one of the pinnacle moments in the idiotic pursuit ....".

It certainly is idiotic, Dan. But any more so than our destructive Socialist government's racist Voice? A tiny proportion of our population would be treated differently from the rest of us, and receive more than the $30 billion they are getting now, with absolutely no benefit to the people lying Albanese says it will help?

The Americans are having a problem with their ancestors' slavery and abuse of Africans imported by them just to be used as slaves.

We have no such problem. No slavery. Strict instructions from the King himself to treat the natives kindly. So kind was Governor Philip that he took no action against a native who speared him. He merely fired his pistol into the air, after he was speared, to warn the fellow off.

There were criminal acts against natives, that were dealt with. Most chose not to resist the newcomers, but moved in closer to settlements for free tucker.

Australians have very little to be ashamed of their ancestors for. Unlike the Americans who continued their cruelty and segregation right into the 20th. Century.

But, now the Socialist Albanese government wants us to vote for race-based segregation, after all the opportunities available to the aboriginals and their descendants has made them just like anyone else in the country. Those who haven't taken part in general society don't want to do so.

A Yes vote for the Voice would certainly bring shame on us.

The voice is a dangerous precedence for this Country. The change is a step too far for normal justice, especially since the constitutional changes made in 1967 which allowed Aboriginals the vote, afforded them equal rights to all other Au citizens.
The act of Parliament in 2013, which recognised Aboriginals as the original inhabitants, was the beginning of the drift away from consensus.

The voice is wrong since it falls outside of equality under the law, by allowing for a power sharing agreement which affords a selected culture of Au society an added advantage.
Other countries such as Sri Lanka for example, rejected a similar claim by Tamils for special constitutional recognition. We should also reject claims of special privilege on the constitution.

If this Countryncontinues the slide towards propping up and affordinggsoecial Ben if it’s to selected cultural groups, depending on the flavour of the month chosen by unreliable politicians, the outcomes will resemble those now befornSan Francisco residents, who will be expected to stump up with the funds to do so.

Those who nowadays are the broken record of past wrongs are in fact partial descendants of the perpetrators but they conveniently fail to even hint at that fact nor do they acknowledge the benefits on top of the compensation provided for recent generations of real indigenous Australians.
They are the very same characters who are vying for positions within the mechanism of the Voice. I have witnessed the hypocritical opportunism of these people & have no faith whatsoever in their ability let alone intention to work towards a common harmony !

Money is the 'cure-all' for all politicos in Australia. Our education system is on the rocks. Throw more money at it.

Result: the education system is worsening.

Aboriginal Australians in remote areas are on the rocks. Throw more money at them.

Result: Aboriginal Australians in remote areas are on bigger rocks.

In the latter case, though, is any of the money getting anywhere near remote aborigines, or is it being gobbled up by bureaucratic quangos like the proposed Voice?

Mayor Wu Announces Members of Reparations Task Force

>>Mayor Michelle Wu today announced the ten individuals that will serve on the newly formed Reparations Task Force, created to study the lasting impact of slavery in Boston. The formation of this task force follows Mayor Wu signing a 2022 City ordinance, sponsored and led by Councilor Julia Mejia and co-sponsored by Councilors Tania Fernandes Anderson and Brian Worrell, to study the impact of slavery in Boston. Mayor Wu joined members of the City Council, Reparations Task Force, and Equity and Inclusion Cabinet at the African Meeting House to announce the establishment of the task force.<<

- Our country is being ruined by stupid people
I think there should be reparations paid to those of us who are paying the price of this stupidity.

Next well hear that China wants reparations from the UK for flooding their country with opium;
And then the UK will demand reparations from Norway for the Viking invasions and Italy for Roman invasions.
Maybe after that, Mexico, Panama and Peru will want reparations for the Spanish Conquistadors?

If you read the Axios link to the story in SF above, the less than secreative suggestion of the rainbow wreckers, is to defund public institutions to fund the scheme; specifically the Police.

It’s not a great leap to suggest our own “Rainbow Albatross “ called a PM, will go down the same path with Aboriginals, after the voice is manipulated into being undemocratically.
