San Francisco reparations panel on how it decided on $5M per Black person: ‘There wasn’t a math formula'
Fox News
A San Francisco reparations panel says it did not use a "math formula" to arrive at its recommendation to give $5 million in reparations to every qualifying Black resident.
"There wasn’t a math formula," McDonnell told The Washington Post. "It was a journey for the committee towards what could represent a significant enough investment in families to put them on this path to economic well-being, growth and vitality that chattel slavery and all the policies that flowed from it destroyed."

While slavery was never legal in San Francisco, reparations activists say the city imposed decades of racist policies that economically harmed Black residents.
