ABC: CA Reparations Task force focuses on key issues over possible compensation
OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- For more than a year, California's Reparation Task Force has been examining the research and data. Now it's time to focus on some big decisions.
"September's meeting in L.A. and today's meeting in Oakland, characterized a development stage. Now, we are not really looking for folks to provide personal and expert testimony," says Kamilah Moore.
Moore is the chair of the nine-member task force, which is undertaking the nation's most ambitious attempt to compensate for the economic legacy of slavery and systematic racism.
According to Moore, over the next two days at their meeting in Oakland, they'll be examining major takeaways from previous reporting and research by the experts on the key issues that will be part of their final report.
