- California’s reparations task force approved recommendations which could give black residents $1.2million each as compensation for slavery and discrimination
- But activists believe it is ‘nowhere near enough’ and demanded $200million as some called it a ‘further injustice’ and others called for direct cash payments
- Previous calculations from economists predicted the reparations could cost around $800billion- more than twice California’s $300 billion annual budget
