On Monday, the City Council of Evanston will vote on a plan to allocate a total of $400,000 to be given to black residents for housing costs.<\/p>\n<p>This comes after county officials already voted to distribute $10 million in reparations over the next 10 years with taxes from recreational marijuana sales.<\/p>\n<p>At a recent hearing, however, Utah Republican Rep. Burgess Owens warned these measures are not in the best interest of the black community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe theory of reparation is nothing new,\u201d he stated. \u201cIt\u2019s been tried over the last hundred years, resulting in the misery and death of over 100 million men, women and children\u2026it\u2019s called redistribution of wealth or socialism.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">This critique of Evanston&#8217;s reparations program is one I&#8217;ve read and heard in reporting on this topic. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/B8mouC04Hx\">https:\/\/t.co\/B8mouC04Hx<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3KUeSiAbOc\">pic.twitter.com\/3KUeSiAbOc<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Delonte Harrod (@delonteharrod) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/delonteharrod\/status\/1373599564444340227?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 21, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>If approved, Evanston will be the first U.S. city to offer reparations to black citizens.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/dem-amnesty-bills-face-uphill-senate-battle\/\"> Dem amnesty bills face uphill Senate battle<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Burgess Owens speaks with people during an Utah Republican election night party Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2020, in Sandy, Utah.
