St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones will appoint a reparations commission to hold hearings on how to make amends for past treatment of Black Americans.
The panel will hold monthly meetings and has no stated deadline for recommendations. Jones, a Democrat, signed an executive order Wednesday establishing a volunteer commission that will recommend how the city should make reparations.

Once you pay reparations you will hear it’s not enough.

I'm relieved.
I'm traveling to St. Louis soon and it's good to know that crime is non-existent apparently....

What about black residents who had a however many great grandpappy that was a slave owner? What about white residents that had one who was a black slave.

This 100%. They will blow through it like a kid with $.50 in their pocket, and they will still not hold any accountability for their actions.
Give em $10 or give em $100,000. It'll be gone in very short time and nothing to show for it.

Is it just "black" or is it "descended from slaves"?
Will they require genetic tests to prove ancestry or just take peoples' words?
What percent black will they need to be? For instance, Obama had a white mother so does being only 50% disqualify him? IE: what's the magic percentage for qualification?
What if someone's ancestors were black AND slave owners?
What if they had white ancestors who were slave owners but then inherited money/property from them?

Japan learned this.
South Korea demanded reparations for WWII atrocities. The Japs paid.
Five years later South Korea came back and said 'You didn't pay enough. We want more reparations.'
Japan said 'F... You.'

If I lived in East St.Louis I would guess that I would be shite out of luck ?

In more ways than one.

Because the reparations would have to come from the businesses and workers in St. Louis.
