Reparations for Slavery Now

We will never achieve racial justice in America if this country does not examine the impact of slavery and its legacy – and make strides toward achieving reparatory justice.

Now, we have the power to make reparations for slavery real with H.R. 40, a bill that would set up a commission to examine the institution of slavery and its impact and make recommendations for reparations to Congress.

Momentum is building, and the time to act is now. Send a message to your members of Congress urging them to support H.R. 40.
