Description
Under the banner of "40 acres and a mule," the movement for reparations for slavery and Jim Crow has gained momentum in recent years, with diverse efforts underway from big states like California and New York to smaller communities like Evanston, Illinois and Asheville, North Carolina. Marcus Hunter, author of the recently published "Radical Reparations: Healing the Soul of a Nation" explains to Taonga Leslie why economic compensation alone will not be sufficient to heal the scar of anti-Black racism and explains the six other forms of compensation that will be necessary to bring about true justice.Join the Progressive Legal Movement Today: ACSLaw.orgToday's Host: Taonga LeslieGuest: Marcus Hunter, Scott Waugh Endowed Chair in the Division of the Social Sciences, UCLALink: Radical Reparations: Healing the Soul of a Nation by Marcus HunterLink: The Case for Reparations by Ta-Nehisi CoatesLink: 40 Acres and a MuleVisit the Podcast Website: Broken Law PodcastEmail the Show: Podcast@ACSLaw.orgFollow ACS on Social Media: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube-----------------Broken Law: About the law, who it serves, and who it doesn’t.----------------- Production House: Flint Stone Media Copyright of American Constitution Society 2024.
