A leading member of San Francisco’s reparations task force has suggested taxing billionaires to fund payments of $5million for every black resident.
The Rev. Amos Brown, who has led Third Baptist Church in the Fillmore district since 1976, said he was ‘very, very cautiously optimistic’ that officials will enact some form of reparations.
‘Of all these billionaires in San Francisco, you could establish a reparations fund,’ he told The New York Times.
