Standpoint when slavery ended with the 13th amendment and soon after the chinese communities were excluded from entering the countries due to the chinese exclusion act of 1882. In rent history the black community was red lined to the out skirts of the city. Japanese americans were sent to internment camps. They have been targeted and most recently the newly latin students. The trauma continues to exist in our communities today. This is not the america we envisioned but this can be the San Francisco that we need to correct the wrongs of history. We cannot forget the pain and suffering of aning of ancestors. We are the wildest dreams of ancestors whose voices were silenced. Here i stand before you to open the conversation on reparations to lead to a plan with a reparations package for black people in this city.
