A California panel has called for billions in reparations for black residents : NPR

I expect monetary reparations will eventually become a ballot proposition, where it will be defeated.

"The task force voted previously to limit reparations to descendants of enslaved or free Black people who were in the country by the end of the 19th century."

I'm good with this.

"An apology crafted by lawmakers must "include a censure of the gravest barbarities" carried out on behalf of the state, according to the draft recommendation approved by the task force.

Those would include a condemnation of former Gov. Peter Hardeman Burnett, the state's first elected governor and a white supremacist who encouraged laws to exclude Black people from California."
