There goes the neighborhood...

I'm happy to see this experiment to see how well it goes....I predict they will attract tens of thousands of African immigrants to Evanston so they can get their reparations. This will effectively drive out what's left of the white, asian and Hispanic middle class in Evanston.

They fight the injustice of having a certain segment of the population sitting at the back of the bus by having another segment of the population sitting at the back of the bus.

Makes complete sense, right? Sure... to anyone with an IQ below 50. But, that's what we are dealing with these days: people that used to be warehoused in insane asylums or schools for the intellectually disabled, but are now running the ****show.

Taking money from immigrants from Asia and giving it to immigrants from Africa makes total sense.

If you hate yourself, hate your country, and feel guilty about what someone did 150 years ago, you vote Democrat. It’s what you do.

If a politician in my area supports reparations, he/she will not get my vote. Also, if reparations were given without my consent in my area, I would be looking to recoup that money back into my pocket, legally of course.

So the 25k will go to 40 people per year or a total of 400 over 10 years.

Whoop deee dooo

Racism is racism. The government should not be taking money from those for no other reason than being born with the wrong skin color (white) and giving it to people who for no other reason were born with the correct skin color (black).

Sounds good. I have a paypal account. PM me for instructions on where to send the 25K that you will be providing me over the next ten years for something that happened 150 years ago. You see, my ancestors were persecuted religiously and it has profoundly impacted me today in a very negative way.

What? You don't think that is right? Whoop deee dooo. I'm only one person. Pony up. It's all your fault. You know it's the right thing to do.

Evanston is a liberal college town on the north shore of Chicagoland right? Well there you have it, a liberal college town strikes again.

Plus there economy is largely based around that University which is the largest employer in town. So most of their cash flow is just made up student loan money, or rich people donations to avoid taxes, and or rich people pay for play for kids acceptance. I believe Northwestern is a public Ivy. Rich parents giving their kids money to spend while away is also a big chunk. Rich parents likely work in FIRE industry, soo they arent really paying for anything at least not with their own money.

Its just another parasite city but on a smaller scale than say NYC.
