California Lawmakers Warn Black Residents on Reparations and Racial Bias in Medical AI.
California Democratic state Sen. Steven Bradford, who served on the California Reparations Task Force, warned African Americans not to expect massive reparations payments from the state, despite the task force recommending up to $1.2 million in payments to eligible Black residents. Bradford claimed that receiving million dollar checks in repayment for historical discrimination is "not happening" and urged residents to be "realistic" about what actual payments may be. The task force also recommended that the state apologize to Black residents.
