San Franciscans line up to support reparations plan to give every black resident $5M, wipe personal debt, hand out $97K guaranteed incomes and homes for just $1 – but no one asks how city will pay

San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors on Tuesday held its first hearing to listen to the public’s views on a plan for reparations – which would see the struggling city hand out cash to black residents. Sgt Yulanda Williams , the president of the police association Officers for Justice, told them: ‘My dad always taught me never to beg. And I am not begging you today. It is time for you to do the right thing and provide us with reparations: make us whole.’ Aaron Peskin, the chair of the Board of Supervisors, has previously said the $5m idea from the African American Reparations Advisory Committee chaired by Eric McDonnell is unworkable. ‘But that should not truncate a conversation about ways that this society and its government should address past ills,’ he added. San Franciscans lined up on Tuesday up to take the microphone and address the Board – with several singing their support. One sang a verse from the 1964 Civil Rights anthem by Sam Cooke, A Change is Gonna Come.
