The Decatur City Commission recently approved a resolution from the Beacon Hill Black Alliance for Human Rights to establish the Decatur Reparations Task Force. The newly formed 11-member group, recommended by the Beacon Hill Black Alliance for Human Rights, is comprised of Beacon Hill legacy residents, historians, legal experts, a youth representative and more. Over the next three years, the task force will host public listening sessions, interview Beacon Hill descendants, conduct research, examine economic displacement, as well as identify past and present legalized discrimination. On Tuesday’s edition of “Closer Look,” host Rose Scott talks with civil rights attorney Mawuli Davis, a founding partner of the Davis Bozeman Johnson Law Firm and co-chair of the Beacon Hill Reparations effort, Wanda Sims Waters, a Beacon Hill legacy resident and a member of the Decatur Reparations Task Force, and her husband, Swain Waters. The guests talked more about the priorities of the task force, the history of the Beacon Hill community and why they feel reparations aren’t just a financial payout. Scott also took calls from listeners who shared their thoughts about reparations.
