   California on Wednesday became the first state to adopt a law   
   paving the way for Black residents and descendants of slaves to   
   receive reparation payments.   
      
   The legislation, which was authored by Assemblywoman Shirley   
   Weber, a Democrat representing San Diego who is chair of   
   California's Legislative Black Caucus, does not commit to any   
   specific payment. Instead, it establishes a nine-person task   
   force that will study the impact of slavery on Black people in   
   California and recommend to the Legislature what kind of   
   compensation should be provided, who should receive it and what   
   form it will take.   
      
   Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the law Wednesday afternoon.   
      
   "After watching last night's debate, this signing can't come too   
   soon," he said during a videoconference with lawmakers and other   
   stakeholders, including the rapper Ice Cube, who used his   
   celebrity to champion the bill.   
      
   "As a nation, we can only truly thrive when every one of us has   
   the opportunity to thrive. Our painful history of slavery has   
   evolved into structural racism and bias built into and   
   permeating throughout our democratic and economic institutions,"   
   Newsom said in a statement.   
      
   This just goes to show how ignorant Californians and Democrats   
   are.   
      
   California had relatively few black slaves.   
      
   Most of their slaves were Chinese and Irish, later Mexican and   
   American Indian.
