At the University of Chicago, student and community organizers have demanded $1 billion in “reparations” from the university to the South Side of Chicago, as part of a multi-pronged campaign asking the university to respond to its historical ties to slavery and allegations of gentrification.

“Reparations” is just a code word for “money to buy marijuana.”

It’s hilarious! I think they should ask for $10 Billion!
One more reason why is useless as preparation for the real world — it’s just a place for performative grievance roleplay
