The woke Democrat-controlled city of Evanston, Illinois, has begun distributing $25,000 payments to 44 residents as part of its taxpayer-funded reparations initiative.
The move was announced by the city’s Reparations Committee.
Established in 2019 and approved by the City Council in 2021, the program provides direct cash payments to Black residents and to the descendants of black residents who lived in Evanston between 1919 and 1969.
Evanston became the first municipality in the United States to adopt a formal reparations plan, pledging $10 million over ten years.
Evanston official Cynthia Vargas told the Chicago Tribune the funds are tied specifically to housing support.
A city memo shows the reparations fund recently received $276,588 from Evanston’s real estate transfer tax, and officials have discussed additional revenue sources, including a potential tax on Delta-8 THC products, to sustain the initiative.
The idea comes from Pan-African communist ideology.
We should have shipped the whole damn bunch of them back when George Wallace told us to. All this wasted money could have gone to improve that city. When do WE start charging THEM for all the death and destruction THEY are responsible for here in America?
President Lincoln was pushing to relocate most of them out of America until he got shot.

Unfortunately, he was right.
Just living in America is more than enough reparations.
Sure beats living in a mud hut in an African jungle getting chased around by wild animals.
Make my guilt go away,
Go woke, go broke!
