San Francisco panelist claims white men pose a threat to society.
A Panelist’s Controversial Statements on Reparations and White Men
A panelist on San Francisco’s reparations committee recently sparked controversy with her remarks about white men. Nikcole Cunningham, a member of the African American Reparations Advisory Committee, made several statements that have drawn attention and criticism.
“Straight white men are abusive; straight white men are serial killers,” Cunningham boldly stated in an interview with the Telegraph.
“They have the most — I watch these shows — the most serial killers. Straight white men are the ones who are shooting up schools, right?” she continued.
“So they are a danger to society,” Cunningham added, clarifying, “Not all of them.”
Cunningham also expressed disappointment in white men for not supporting the committee’s reparations recommendations, which include $5 million cash payments to every black resident of the city.
“So if anything, [white men] pose more of a harm than support and help. And 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,” she added.
Furthermore, Cunningham claimed that “white supremacy is ingrained in the DNA in this country and definitely in this city.”
When questioned about funding the ambitious reparations plans, the panelist suggested levying taxes on utilities such as water, garbage, Pacific Gas and Electric, internet, and cable.
“You adding even $0.05 to these things, you have millions and millions, if not billions, of dollars,” she explained. “But the simple fact that these are things that you have to use, who’s going to say, I’m not going to give those people reparations, I’ll turn my water off? No one.”
According to The Telegraph, Cunningham’s statements align with the views of other committee members.
San Francisco’s Ambitious Reparations Plan
San Francisco established its own reparations committee in response to the riots following the death of George Floyd. The city’s proposals go beyond those of California’s Reparations Task Force, which is also advocating for substantial financial compensation for black residents.
In addition to the $5 million cash payments, the current reparations plan for black residents of San Francisco includes a range of benefits:
- Elimination of personal debt and tax burdens
- A guaranteed annual income of at least $97,000 for the next 250 years
- Homes in the city for $1 per family
In April, the committee requested $50 million to establish a dedicated reparations office, but the mayor of the city declined the proposal.
