Podcasts about reparations task force

As we face uncertain paths in government, reparations has been a vigorous discussion in California. After a landmark 1100 page report composed by a select Reparations Task Force and supported by State Government, two critical reparations bills were to be voted on during the last Legislative Session in the State Capitol. Suddenly and with seemingly no explanation, the vote for those bills did not happen. It would seem that the California Legislative Black Caucus was disjointed. Activists groups like Coalition for a Just and Equitable California has been on the leading edge of community advocacy in this space.Now, as government evolves in its present post-election iteration, new leaders, legislative reset, and an unclear world view, Where do we go from here? We are glad to have attorney Kamillah V. Moore with us to discuss the reprations issue in California and reparative justice across the globe. Tap in

There is this narrative out there that says Black men will not vote for VP KLamala Harris because she is a woman. I have never heard any man speak like that. Brothas are looking at policy as far as I know... And then in California, the California Legislative Black Caucus botched reparations vote advanced after the historic and detailed report delivered by the Reparations Task Force. Some say the bills were flawed. OThers say the bills' author was acting alone - a lone wolf. OThers say the fiscal capacity to administer reparations was not there. Whatever the case, to the everyman, it looks really crazy that our black politicians cant even come together on reparations. But is that the case? What happened? THe people deserve to know. We are privileged to discuss these issues with Dr. Anthony Samad, Executive Director of theMervyn M. Dymally African American Political and Economic Institute at Cal State Dominguez Hills. Also joining us is the Controller of the California Democratic PArty and the Chair of the DSemocratic PArtyh WOmen's Caucus, Carolyn Fowler. This is informative and frank talk.

Former President Donald Trump's counter-programming debate interview with Tucker Carlson received 33 million views in the first 20 minutes after it was posted on Twitter, according to the social media platform's view counter. Southern California's summer of discontent — marked by a series of work stoppages from hotels to Hollywood — has inspired labor-supporting Democrats in the state Legislature to try and change the law so striking workers can get unemployment checks while they picket for better pay and working conditions. In a move toward reparations for descendants of Black American Slaves in California, the SB 490 bill, introduced by Reparations Task Force member Steven Bradford, is now before the state legislature. This bill proposes the creation of the 'California American Freedmen Affairs Agency'.

Philadelphia has become the latest city to announce the creation of a reparations task force to examine if the descendants of enslaved Africans will receive compensation for the ongoing effects of slavery, reports The Philadelphia Tribune. After several consultations with the Philadelphia chapter of the National Coalition of Blacks for Reparations in America, council members introduced the measure in early June. By approving the measure, Philadelphia joins other cities like Detroit and Chicago, and states such as California and New Jersey, which have similar commissions to explore what kind of economic considerations could be given to descendants of enslaved Africans. According to a survey conducted by Pew Research Center in 2022, 77% of African Americans support reparations in comparison to 18% of white Americans. Learn more about your ad choices.

A first-of-its-kind task force looking into reparations for Black residents in California has been tasked with researching how leaders can work to try and atone for centuries of slavery and systemic racism since 2021, and come up with a list of over 100 suggestions. Among those suggestions is payments for all eligible black residents in California, however that's just one of many systemic changes they're proposing. For more on this, KCBS Raido's Bret Burkhart and Patti Reising spoke with Kamilah Moore, Reparatory justice scholar and attorney, as well as chair of the Reparations Task Force.

Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer presented his proposed 2024 fiscal year budget to the Fresno City Council on Thursday, coming in as the largest budget in city history by more than $130 million. Perhaps the biggest takeaway, however, was Dyer's suspenseful introduction to a yet-to-be-determined trash hauling rate increase for Fresno residents. California's reparations task force recently approved landmark recommendations that could lead to billions of dollars for the state's Black residents. But the task force's proposals, which include the potential for more than $1 million payments to some Black Californians, face significant hurdles in deep-blue California. Support of the racial justice movement has faded since then, and the state is now facing a $32 billion budget shortfall that would make launching multibillion dollar programs for Black residents difficult. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former President Donald Trump brushed off the House Jan. 6 committee's referral to the Department of Justice that he face criminal charges for his actions leading up to the 2021 Capitol riot. A jury in Los Angeles found disgraced Hollywood movie mogul Harvey Weinstein guilty of rape on Monday after 10 days of deliberation. California's first-in-the-nation Reparations Task Force has six months until it must submit its final report to the lawmakers who created it, but in numbers floated last week the panel suggested that the state pay some descendants of enslaved people nearly $500,000 each based on what it defines as three harms caused by slavery. The task force—comprised of elected officials, civil rights activists, attorneys, and academics—is also evaluating what it identifies as two further harms, and may assess further damages it says are due to certain descendants based on those calculations as well. As climate change and inefficient water management has left lakes and reservoirs drying up all over the Middle East and beyond, the Israeli government have created desalination plants that convert salt water into fresh drinkable water. Their plan was to pump water from the nearby Mediterranean sea, take the salt out of it and send it traveling throughout the country to the lake when needed. This would ensure an abundant water supply for its agriculture and people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

2022 Reparations Task Force Meeting - PT 1 of 5 CALIFORNIA

California's first-in-the-nation task force on reparations will release a report Wednesday documenting in detail the harms perpetuated by the state against Black people and recommending ways to address those wrongs. The recommendations include expanding voter registration, making it easier to hold violent police accountable and improving Black neighborhoods. The report to be released by the state Department of Justice marks the halfway point for the two-year reparations task force. The task force voted in March to limit reparations to descendants of Black people who were in the United States at the end of the 19th century. The report marks the halfway point for the two-year task force's work. The draft report does not provide a comprehensive reparations plan, which is due to lawmakers next year. The report is expected to lay out how California supported slavery before it was technically abolished and oppressed Black residents through discriminatory laws and practices in education, home ownership, employment and the courts.

California's first-in-the-nation task force on reparations will release a report Wednesday documenting in detail the harms perpetuated by the state against Black people and recommending ways to address those wrongs. The recommendations include expanding voter registration, making it easier to hold violent police accountable and improving Black neighborhoods. The report to be released by the state Department of Justice marks the halfway point for the two-year reparations task force. The task force voted in March to limit reparations to descendants of Black people who were in the United States at the end of the 19th century. The report marks the halfway point for the two-year task force's work. The draft report does not provide a comprehensive reparations plan, which is due to lawmakers next year. The report is expected to lay out how California supported slavery before it was technically abolished and oppressed Black residents through discriminatory laws and practices in education, home ownership, employment and the courts.

Conversations about the history of slavery are often confined to the North and the South, with the West viewed as a free “promised land.” But California passed laws, like the Fugitive Slave Act of 1852, that reinforced the institution of slavery, and otherwise allowed coerced, unpaid labor in the state. And the laws impacted more than just Black people, too. Historian Stacey L. Smith writes in her book “Freedom's Frontier” that “ diverse forms of American Indian servitude, sexual trafficking in bound women, and contract labor involving Latin Americans, Asians, and Pacific Islanders all kept the slavery question alive in California during the 1850s.” This history has been brought to the fore in recent weeks as the state's Reparations Task Force continues to hear testimony about the impacts of slavery on African Americans. We take a closer look at this part of California's past and why it matters.

California's historic Reparations Task Force heard testimony last week on anti-Black racism in housing, education, banking and the environment as part of a series of meetings considering the impact of slavery in the state. Vice chair of the task force, Dr. Amos Brown, emphasized the importance of the hearings, declaring: “We need to make sure that these testimonies are shouted from the house top and throughout the length and breadth of this state of California.” Commissioned by Assembly Bill 3121 last fall to “study and develop reparation proposals for African Americans,” this task force is the first of its kind in the U.S. We'll talk to task force chair Kamilah Moore about the recent hearings and key questions the group is exploring in their study, including who would qualify for reparations.
