In this episode we discuss The Case For Reparations, written by Ta-Nehisi Coates and published in 2014 in The Atlantic Monthly.
The subject of Reparations continues to be in the news including during the recent Democratic Presidential debates, but it’s not a new subject.
Coates summarizes in his article by writing,
“Two hundred fifty years of slavery. Ninety years of Jim Crow. Sixty years of separate but equal. Thirty-five years of racist housing policy. Until we reckon with our compounding moral debts, America will never be whole.”
