Boston’s new Reparations Task Force.

The 10 members task force was announced in February to examine the history of slavery in Boston, its impact on descendants today, and provide suggestions to Boston Mayor Michelle Wu on repairing the harm to Black residents of Boston. Other states around the country, including California, and Rhode Island are also exploring reparations and ways to address the the issue. Financial compensation is a top issue around reparations.

Will local and state measures work or will the federal government step in with a national policy?

Panelists:

Carrie Mays youth activist, student at U-Mass Boston AND Member of Boston’s Task Force on Reparations

Traci Griffith, Director, Racial Justice Program, ACLU Massachusetts

George “Chip” Greenidge, Member, Task Force on Reparations AND Founder and Director, Greatest MINDS
