San Francisco to Apologize to Black Residents for Discrimination
Breitbart ^ | 02/16/2024 | JOEL B. POLLAK

The City of San Francisco is poised to issue a formal apology to black residents for decades of racial discrimination against them throughout its history, according to a resolution introduced Tuesday that the Board of Supervisors is likely to approve.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported:

Dozens of people packed the San Francisco Board of Supervisors chamber Thursday to hear for the first time a resolution apologizing for the forced removal of Black communities from historic neighborhoods, ongoing tensions with the Police Department and underinvestment in key public services.

A task force set up by the city released recommendations last summer suggesting reparations to the city’s Black community, including potential $5 million payments meant to rectify some of the harm caused by generations of systemic racism. The task force also recommended issuing the apology.

The seven-page draft resolution says San Francisco has a long history of creating laws, policies and institutions that have “perpetuated racial inequity in our city, much of which is difficult to document due to historical erasure.”

Yep, that’s a fine substitute for those $5 million reparations payments.

That apology plus $5 will get you a coffee at Starbucks. But not an extra-good latte or cappuccino. Nope, just a regular coffee.

ROTFLMAO! I don’t know why those white turd rollers spend a lot of money going to “college”. They are stupider when they come out than when they went in.

An apology isn’t worth Jack. Put you money where your mouth is and start handing out those five million dollar reparations checks. Show them you’re REALLY SORRY for what you idiots did.

I suspect SF city hall has been the same (DEM controlled).

Embolden the criminals more. Women should mostly be banned from politics.

White, left-wing women are pretty gag-inducing as well.

The City of San Francisco government officials should apologize to the United States for being oxygen thieves.

What about the White residents who have been discriminated against just by living in San Francisco? I guess they should have left. As many have.
