A San Francisco reparations committee member claims white men are a “menace” and “white supremacy is ingrained in the DNA” of the US.

Slave owners should be held accountable

Nikcole Cunningham claims white people still benefit from slavery. A member of the Compensation Committee of San Francisco who has proposed paying millions of dollars in slavery reparations to the city’s Black residents has called straight white men “a menace to society.” Cunningham was part of the committee that proposed every eligible black resident receive $5 million for damages for slavery.

Cunningham said white men are “privileged,” adding, “Straight white men are serial killers.” She elaborated, “They have the most, I watch these shows, the most serial killers.”

“Straight white men are the ones who are shooting up schools, right?” Cunningham added, “So they are a danger to society. Not all of them,” Cunningham added. 

White men are not helping with reparations

Cunningham noted that white men were not supporting reparations and shared, “If anything, they pose more of a harm than support and help.”

Remember their ancestors

She turned to historical moments, “Then you got to remember their ancestors.. are the ones who were standing out here in their Sunday best watching black people hang and burn.”

White supremacy is in the DNA of the country

Nicole Cunningham, who serves on the 15-member African American Reparations Advisory Committee, continued by sharing her belief that “white supremacy is ingrained in the DNA in this country and definitely in this city.” Several other members of the committee share these views.

Scott Wiener, California State Senator, confirmed for the publication that he supports reparations “to make good on the harm that was done.” He added, regarding payments, “There’s always a way to afford (it)… But we do have a pretty disastrous budget right now, but that will shift over time.”

Something similar was already done

Japanese Americans and some Holocaust victims also reportedly got similar payments. The law gave surviving Japanese Americans $20,000 in reparations and a formal apology by President Reagan for their incarceration during World War II.

Payments to Japanese citizens

The payments were made to Japanese American citizens removed from the West Coast during WWII for losses of real and personal property.

The cost of reparations

The Hoover Institution made a calculation that the reparations for San Francisco would be around $175 billion, or $600,000 for each non-African American household in the city. Cunningham proposed taxing essential utilities, such as “water, garbage, Internet, and Cable,” and said, “You add even $0.05 to these things, you have millions and millions if not billions of dollars.”

There is always a way, or so it should be

Cunningham explained, “No one has asked us, ‘Hey, Nicole, can we send this money to Ukraine?’ They have just found and sent the money.”

Quite a task

Considering San Francisco’s yearly budget is $14 billion, finding over $150 billion will be quite a task.
