How the 1st US City to Fund Reparations for Black Residents Is Making Amends Ashley Brown et al., ABC News, March 1, 2021 Evanston, Illinois, is like a lot of American cities. The city just north of Chicago appears picturesque, updated and grand on one side but not far away, one can see the signs of economic and racial segregation, despite the city’s proud, diverse and liberal reputation. What sets Evanston apart from other cities, however, is its groundbreaking plan to address the impact of that segregation and Black disenfranchisement: reparations. The impetus for the city’s reparations resolution, first passed in 2019 and spearheaded by 5th Ward Alderman Robin Rue Simmons, is rooted partially in Rue Simmons’ experience growing up Black in Evanston.
