Perhaps I will be proven wrong.. It looks like there are some local governments willing to address this reparations thing head on.

North Carolina's, Asheville City Council to vote on reparations for it's Black residents on July 14th.

Excerpts from the resolution...
"Black people have been unjustly" enslaved, segregated and incarcerated. And that they "have been unjustly targeted by law enforcement and criminal justice procedures, incarcerated at disproportionate rates and subsequently excluded from full participation in the benefits of citizenship that include voting, employment, housing and health care."

"The City Council of the City of Asheville apologizes and makes amends" for participating in slavery, enforcing segregation and urban renewal "that destroyed multiple successful Black communities," the resolution says.


Here is the complete resolution they will be voting on.

Interested to see how this gets voted on...

This may be a precursor of what may be heavily debated during the 2020 election.
