Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Ahead of Juneteenth, far-left Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has signed Executive Order 2024-1 to create a \u201cBlack Reparations Agenda\u201d<\/em>\u2014a government-sanctioned program that will funnel taxpayer dollars into grants and programs exclusively for Black residents, under the guise of \u201creparative justice.\u201d<\/p>\n

The new executive order calls for a sweeping \u201cReparations Task Force\u201d<\/em> to develop a plan focused on redressing historical wrongs allegedly tied to slavery and Jim Crow laws\u2014neither of which existed in the state of Illinois. The end goal? Handouts based entirely on race.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday\u2019s Executive Order is not just a public declaration; it is a pledge to shape the future of our city by confronting the legacy of inequity that has plagued Chicago for far too long,\u201d said far-left Mayor Brandon Johnson.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn partnership with the Chicago City Council Black Caucus and our dedicated allies, we are continuing to build on the bedrock of my administration to move forward in reconciliation through targeted investments aimed at rectifying decades of deliberate disinvestment in Black neighborhoods and communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese decisive actions move us beyond words and are a testament to my administration taking on the responsibility of this work. Thank you to all for your unwavering dedication that has brought us to this pivotal moment toward a more just and equitable Chicago for all.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the signing ceremony, Johnson made it crystal clear this isn\u2019t about unity\u2014it\u2019s about prioritizing one racial group above all others.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur way will bring to Black residents in reclaiming ownership of our own communities. That is the spirit of Juneteenth, you all. It is about reflecting on our past. Other cultures are taught to never forget.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to be reminded as Blacks here in Chicago and America, remembering our past and working towards a more just future. Investing in Black is not a criminal act. Says she need a witness, so I\u2019m going to say it again. Investing in Black is not a criminal act.\u201d<\/p>\n
