In historic move, North Carolina city approves reparations for Black residents

 The unanimously passed resolution does not mandate direct payments. Instead, it will make investments in areas where Black residents face disparities.

"The resulting budgetary and programmatic priorities may include but not be limited to increasing minority home ownership and access to other affordable housing, increasing minority business ownership and career opportunities, strategies to grow equity and generational wealth, closing the gaps in health care, education, employment and pay, neighborhood safety and fairness within criminal justice," the resolution reads.

So Welfare? Ridiculous ...
