Chicago begins discussions on giving reparations to descendants of slaves

Chicago officials began talks about providing reparations to black residents who are descendants of slaves in the first meeting of a subcommittee created within the city council.

The subcommittee, within the council’s health committee, was approved to be formed in September 2020 so city officials could look at the “state of equity” within Chicago.
