.uscensusbureau is reportedly exploring asking black residents if they are descendants of slaves as an update to race & ethnicity questions already surveyed. The Biden administration may also be looking to combine the race & ethnicity question.
The Wall Street Journal reported the Biden administration is looking to categorize black residents who descended from slaves in the United States separately from those whose descendants immigrated from other countries and were not slaves.Another change the Biden administration is reportedly looking to make relates to combining the race and ethnicity question, which would eliminate asking if a person is Hispanic or Latino as a separate question.
The state of California and the city of San Francisco both have commissions evaluating reparations for black citizens, with both citing slavery and prior legal discrimination as the rationale for reparations. The task force was created via a bill that Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law in 2020 and is set to release its final report on July 1 after nearly three years of research and deliberation. After the final report is issued, it will be up to the state legislature to decide if it wants to implement the proposals.
