In a move that has sparked woke support and lucid skepticism, New York City is set to become the largest city in the United States to implement a reparations program. Sponsored by Councilmembers Crystal Hudson and Farah Louis, a pair of bills aimed at establishing a Truth, Healing, and Reconciliation Commission, along with a reparations task force, passed on Thursday and will take effect immediately.
“Today, the New York City Council voted to pass legislation establishing municipal efforts to acknowledge and address the legacy and impact of slavery and racial injustices in New York City.” – New York City Council. This announcement raises eyebrows. Why now? What’s the real agenda behind this sudden urgency?
After seemingly rushing through this legislation, Hudson and Louis are touting it as a transformative step for the city. Hudson claims, “I hope the legislation will identify racist, anti-Black policies at the foundation of our city’s institutions and it will yield material solutions to address these foundational cracks.”
Louis added, “This legislation is a crucial step towards justice and equity.”
“Equity” has become synonymous with woke discrimination as “white guilt” permeates the left. And, of course, the timing of this legislation, with the 2024 elections looming, certainly raises questions about its motivations.
PIPE DREAM: New York City Council Advancing Slavery Reparations While City Spends Billions on Illegal Immigrants
The city council in New York City is pushing a new slavery reparations program. Where do these folks think the money is going to come from?
New York is currently spending billions of dollars on illegal immigrants. Perhaps if they weren’t doing that, the city might be in a position to dole out more cash but the Big Apple’s budget is already stretched to the limit.
