Therefore, the approach the economists are taking is not to refute the harms of the nation but to atone for the harms of the state. A focus on the state\u2019s harms is wise and strategic, and will hopefully prove more persuasive to legislators as it specifies how the state alone has abided in disenfranchising African Americans. This approach is also more proactive in creating sustainable economic opportunities alongside monetary compensation. Dr. Darity attested to this stating that the task force\u2019s approach would be similar to the restitution achieved in the Bruce\u2019s Beach case.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCalifornia Discrimination: Bruce Beach<\/b>\r\n\r\nCalifornia has a long history of discriminatory practices regarding eminent domain. The Bruce\u2019s Beach case is one of many. The Bruce\u2019s Beach was a black-owned property seized by the state through eminent domain to build a park in the early 1900s. The park was never built and the property remained dormant, and the family received not even a fraction of what they were owed for the damages. Recently, the state of California returned the property to the descendants of the Bruces.\r\n\r\nThis is a great example of what the task force plans to do to address specific harms done by California which warrant rightful compensation. Dr. Darity stated the family should be owed more because they were denied the property for so long. He stated that they should be paid compensation for the years of denial, in addition to the return of the property.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nHousing Discrimination<\/b>\r\n\r\nThis avenue of reparations concerning property is quite efficacious given the issues of housing disparities within California. Issues such as the disproportionate rates of homelessness and present-redlining with the area. African Americans constitute 6.5% of the California population but account for almost 40% of the state\u2019s homeless individuals. Regarding the issue of redlining, communities of African American homeowners experience discriminatory appraisals on the value of their homes because of the neighboring African American residents. These issues regarding housing are prevalent in California. But assigning compensation is not always a straightforward process with housing disparities. Dr. Darity stated the economists work to address the tangible applications of an issue alongside the effects it may have on an individual\u2019s quality of life when assigning monetary cost.\r\n\r\nAccounting for Lasting Effects<\/b>\r\n\r\nThis discussion revealed the approach of the economic advisors as a whole. Dr. Darity was very adamant about not only addressing wrongdoing, but accounting for the lasting effects it had on other facets of an individual\u2019s life. The approach of the advising economist seemed to be purposeful in constructing well-rounded solutions. Their approach necessitated proper restitution be given to those who are overdue \u201c40 acres and a Mule,\u201d as they account for the cost of reparations.\r\n\r\nSources<\/strong>\r\n\r\nCimini, Kate. \u201cBlack People Disproportionately Homeless in California.\u201d\u00a0CalMaters<\/i>, 5 Oct. 2019,\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/calmatters.org\/california-divide\/2019\/10\/black-people-disproportionately-homeless-in-california\/<\/a>.\r\n\r\nHepler, Lauren. \u201c\u2018Present-Day Redlining\u2019: A Black Homeowner Says Her Oakland Property Was Undervalued by $400K.\u201d\u00a0San Francisco Chronicle<\/i>, 23 July 2021,\u00a0https:\/\/www.sfchronicle.com\/eastbay\/article\/Present-day-redlining-A-Black-homeowner-16335987.php<\/a>.\r\n\r\nHajek, Danny, et al. \u201cA Black Family Got Their Beach Back \u2014 and Inspired Others to Fight against Land Theft.\u201d\u00a0NPR<\/i>, 10 Oct. 2021,\u00a0https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2021\/10\/10\/1043821492\/black-americans-land-histor<\/a>\r\n\r\n "}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_add_component","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_add_component":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_work","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_work":{"heading":"Work","manually_curate":false,"work":null}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_related_articles","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_related_articles":{"heading":"Updates","button_text":"See all Related Articles","manually_curate":false,"articles":null}}]},"yoast_head":"\nCalculating the Cost of Reparations -
