REPORT: New lawsuit argues that America's ‘first operational reparations program,’ offering $25,000 payouts to black Illinois residents, is unconstitutional
The $25,000 payouts were initially for housing costs but now also include cash payments
Over 125 ancestors have received payouts, with about 80 direct descendants receiving the sums annually
The program was launched in 2021 and is open to black adult residents of Evanston between 1919 and 1969, ‘known as ancestors, and their affected descendants’
