SPONSOR H.R.40
IRAs
An Individual Reparation Account is a White person's behavior which seeks to lessen and ameliorate the burden, loss or dehumanization which a BIPOC experiences in American society simply because of the color of their skin according to Michael Eric Dyson. Personal behavior consists of social interactions, business transactions, and professional relationships.
Contact your Congressmen & women to demand their immediate support for the H.R.40 bill first introduced by Representative John Conyers, Jr. in 1989 & now under review with the 117th Congress.
REDUCE THE GAP
'Today, the average white family has roughly 10 times the amount of wealth as the average Black family. White college graduates have over seven times more wealth than Black college graduates. Making the American Dream an equitable reality demands the same U.S. government that denied wealth to Blacks restore that deferred wealth through reparations to their descendants in the form of individual cash payments in the amount that will close the Black-white racial wealth divide. Additionally, reparations should come in the form of wealth-building opportunities that address racial disparities in education, housing, and business ownership.'
