Los Angeles Mayor Unveils Reparations Plan, Says George Soros’ Foundation Would Help Fund It
June 20, 2021
Written by Ian Cheong
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, a Democrat, has unveiled a new plan in connection with George Soros’ Open Society Foundations to kickstart a program for reparations in the city.
Speaking in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Garcetti said on Friday that the Geroge Soros-owned organization had expressed an interest in financing reparations for Black residents, which he hopes will serve as a model for corporations and banks to do the same. Garcetti’s remarks come a day after he announced the formation of the L.A. Reparations Advisory Commission to develop what he called a “pilot reparations program targeted at a cohort of Black Angelanos.”
Garcetti said that Soros’ international network, which provides grants for a variety of progressive causes and projects, was one of “many” entities that would be willing to finance such a program. He stated that he hoped banks and corporations would come forward “to begin to make some amends to push this movement forward,” adding that the funding would be a way “to reckon with a complicity that we saw in American capitalism, slavery and post-slavery racism.”
As noted by the L.A. Times, the beneficiaries of the program and how any financial compensation would be made toward them would be details for Garcetti’s commission to decide.

Great. Racism on parade. People getting paid just to be black.
Somewhere in this, other people are going to pay because they aren't.

Did the mayor say how many slaves ever lived in Los Angeles that he feels the need to spend taxpayer money on reparations?

Did the socialis, er, mayor say how many of the taxpaying Angelinos voted to approve this use of taxpayer funds?
