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.
