At the first in-person public meeting of the City of Los Angeles’s Reparations Advisory Commission, commissioners will present the City’s plans to conduct an in-depth study of harms experienced by Black Angelenos. Community members will have a chance to respond with questions and public comment, as well as to meet the commissioners. The Reparations Advisory Commission is a Blue-Ribbon Task Force composed of leading local voices in activism, academia, law, and racial justice and is chaired by Michael A. Lawson, president and CEO of the Los Angeles Urban League and former ambassador in the Obama administration. Join committee members Lawson, Khansa Jones-Muhammad, Mark Wilson, Mandla Kayise, Katrina VanderWoude, Cheryl Harris, and Virgil Roberts for this community meeting.
