(2) A person is eligible for reparations under this section if the person demonstrates that the person:

(a) Is descended from an American slave;

(b) Has identified as African-American on legal documents for at least 10 years before the date of the application;

(c) Is at least 18 years of age, an emancipated minor or a ward, as defined in ORS 419A.004, whose parents are deceased or for whom parental rights have been terminated and have not been reinstated; and

123k tax free for life?

Who wouldn't move to Oregon and just wait 2 years before they apply if they meet the criteria?

Strangely enough, the Black population in Oregon will jump from 150 to 2.75 million in the week after this is approved.

Wasnt aware Oregon was that heavily involved in the slave trade. They should be more concerned about giving their land back to indians.

Sounds like a total of 123K, not each year

I believe the criteria is "and" logic, and not "or" logic. So you would have to be a descendent from a slave and identify as a black for at least 10 years before the date of the application.

Yeah. It will.

But not until they acknowledge their culture's shortcomings.

Or...we acknowledge it's about class warfare rather than race.
