lol...... starving to stay relevant - Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) signed a bill into law on Friday, launching a process for California to administer reparations for descendants of slaves. I learned something new today, I though California was a "free state" when they entered the union in 1850. “Neither slavery, nor involuntary servitude, unless for the punishment of crimes, shall ever be tolerated in this State.” But what’s on paper is not the reality of what happened - In 1850, Congress passed the Fugitive Slave Act — a law that required white people living in free states to help catch and re-enslave people living in freedom. Many free states fought against the mandate. Not California. California’s Supreme Court ruled that enslavers who came to California before it became a state — and thus was not technically a free state yet — should have the right to reclaim their human property. Perfect!
