Well, it’s official—Chicago has gone full social justice lottery, and the winners are exclusively determined by skin color. Just ahead of Juneteenth, far-left Mayor Brandon Johnson signed Executive Order 2024-1, creating what he’s calling a “Black Reparations Agenda.” Translation: a taxpayer-funded race-based entitlement scheme dressed up in the usual progressive buzzwords like “equity,” “justice,” and “reconciliation.”
Let’s be clear: Illinois was a free state. It didn’t have slavery. Jim Crow laws? Also not part of Illinois history. But that’s not stopping Johnson from playing racial Robin Hood—raiding the wallets of working-class taxpayers to fund “housing subsidies,” “economic development,” and “public health initiatives” exclusively for one racial group.
Johnson calls this “repairing decades of disinvestment.” Most people call it unconstitutional. Imagine flipping the script and creating a publicly funded program that only benefits white residents—there would be riots in the streets and wall-to-wall MSNBC coverage about fascism. But when the discrimination goes the other direction, it’s suddenly “justice.”

At his signing ceremony, Johnson didn’t even pretend this was about unity or equality. “Investing in Black is not a criminal act,” he shouted, like anyone had claimed otherwise. He made it clear this executive order isn’t about lifting all Chicagoans—just a selected few, based entirely on skin color. The cherry on top? A publicly funded “re-education” campaign for the entire city. Yep. They’re going full Orwell. Get ready for taxpayer dollars to be used to teach residents how guilty and complicit they are in harms they never committed, in a city where the murder rate is off the charts and kids can’t even walk to school safely.
So what exactly is this Reparations Task Force going to do? They’ll hand out “housing subsidies,” give grants to Black-owned businesses (based on race, not merit), and hold public hearings where people can testify about “harm” from past decades—whatever that means. And if you dare question any of it, expect to be labeled a bigot by the same people who think hiring and funding based on race is “progress.”
This isn’t just bad policy—it’s a recipe for more division, resentment, and dysfunction in a city that’s already drowning in it. Chicago doesn’t need more social experiments—it needs law and order, good schools, and a tax base that doesn’t run for the Indiana border. But hey, when your administration is run by activists instead of adults, this is what you get.
Obviously why he is doing it.
This guy is a IDIOT always has bin ,always will B A IDIOT !
How many Black people will actually receive benefits under a corrupt mayor who thinks of his people as stupid field hands? Many who think, act, dress, and talk like field hands. How many of the recipients will appreciate and thank the people who worked to produce those benefits? My prediction is exactly none. Most beneficiaries will waste and squander their gift. Just reference the history. Please don’t re-elect ‘Billy-goat’ Johnson to anymore public offices Chicago. Please, for your own good.
Billy-goat man bad!
