Evanston’s Road to Reparations – Chicago Magazine

"...(T)his college town of 74,000 became the first municipality in America to commit public dollars — in this case, tax revenue from the soon-to-be-legalized sale of recreational cannabis — to reparations for its black citizens. In doing so, Evanston’s leaders accomplished something that a generation of civil rights activists hadn’t managed to elevate beyond a legislative pipe dream."

As if all the free stuff handed on a silver platter to the minority crowd wasnt enough. The term “Gibs me dat” really has some meaning. Gibs me, gibs me, gibs me!

So will the costs of Evanston looting be applied toward this reparations spending?
