Meet California’s historic nine-member reparations task force established after Governor Gavin Newsom signed Shirley Weber’s bill AB3121 in September 2020. The first statewide body to study reparations for Black Californians explores issues of affordable housing, healthcare, education, and much more. In this second episode of our five-part series, the members share their personal experiences with systemic racism that propelled them into seeking racial justice. In July 2023, the task force will present recommendations for addressing the harms identified through their efforts.
