California reparations advocates push for compensation beyond a single check
Kristin Nimmers is the policy and campaign manager for the California Black Power Network (CBPN) and the Alliance for Reparations, Reconciliation, and Truth.
Kristin Nimmers said financial reparations must go far beyond a "single check."
Kristin Nimmers said a Black immigrant who came to the U.S. in the 1950s before the Civil Rights Act was passed also experienced segregated schools.
“If you experienced segregated schools, if you experienced redlining, and we are coming up with some sort of policy or some sort of form of repair for those things, then you should also be included in the group that is repaired. It isn’t really a lineage-based outlook but more of a harm-based approach.”
