Overview: In a recent meeting of the Boston Reparations Task Force, discussions were dominated by the historical injustices of urban renewal and its lasting impact on the Black community. Participants voiced concerns about the legacy of land seizures through tax foreclosures and urban renewal projects, which displaced generations of Black families. One speaker criticized the irony of the city presenting land, once taken from Black families, as a solution to the racial wealth gap, stating, “you steal land from black people and sell it back to developers and say ‘here is your redress.'”
