The City of Evanston has been in the headlines of late. The reparations conversation is heating up, and this Illinois city is taking a crack at what they call a reparations proposal.Growing opposition to the reparations bill is taking shape, as many believe a true reparations program must include cash payments and not be so narrowly targeted that it only helps a small number of Black Evanston residents.Evanston activists Rose Cannon, Kevin Brown, Sebastian Nalls, and Jersey Shabazz join us for this episode to break down what is going on, and why the current reparations plan is severely flawed. The conversation about how to define reparations and how it should be structured is an important one. We hope that you enjoy the episode.
