I am an Environmental Health and Safety Professional, as well as a science/technical writer for a variety of news and professional publications. I have been a citizen activist since 2009, and am one of the co-founders of the San Diego-based group, Southern California Tax Revolt Coalition.

The last time we checked on the news related to reparations for black Americans, a Texas congresswoman and Democrat Jasmine Crockett appeared on an episode of the Black Lawyers Podcast and suggested that one-way reparations could be paid to descendants of America’s former slave trade is for the group to be given a reprieve from paying taxes for a certain amount of time.
