News and Updates

The HORT Program is making strides in reparative justice, with key milestones from HORT 1.0 and 2.0 and exciting plans to expand beyond Detroit in 2025. From our Restorative Genealogy to impactful Community Engagement programs, we’re committed to innovative, collaborative solutions. Learn more about our journey and what’s ahead!

Community-driven efforts like Reparation Generation and the Black Wealth Builders Fund aim to empower Black families by increasing access to homeownership and fostering long-term wealth.

On Dec. 4, 2024, Reparation Generation (RepGen) accepted the Outstanding Contributions to the Reparations Movement award at the National State and Local Reparations Symposium, hosted by FirstRepair and the National African-American Reparations Commission. This event was held in Evanston, IL—the birthplace of the nation’s first municipally funded reparations program.

It’s a RepGen core belief that all Americans will experience positive individual and societal benefits from reparations and racial wealth equity. Since 2021 we’ve been surveying, interviewing, and co-creating with you, our RepGen network to reflect and assess if and how all of us benefit from Reparations. We’re excited to partner with Reparations Finance Lab (RFL) in these important efforts.

Reparation Generation (RepGen) and Reparations Finance Lab (RFL) and are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership aimed at advancing reparative justice through innovative and data-driven community-focused initiatives.

Attention, Detroit! The Detroit Reparations Task Force is seeking your input to shape recommendations that will address past harms to Black residents through housing, economic development, education, and more. Your voice matters in this crucial moment.

Move people from reparations curious to reparations activated. Take the next step to advance reparations in your community by hosting a RepGen House Meeting! House meetings are an effective low-barrier, high-joy way for reparations supporters can open the doors to new friends.

The HORT Pilot 2.0 launched in July 2024. It’s composed of Pilot 1.0 applicants who were either waitlisted or were unable to complete the program requirements within the timeframe allocated. Participant experience and feedback have guided modifications to further simplify and streamline the experience.

The Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan awarded Reparation Generation a $75,000 grant to support its pilot programs in Detroit. The Organization will use these funds in combination with other funds from individuals around the US to build Reparation Generation’s capacity to execute its current programs and plan for expansion and scaling of its models.

RepGen is thrilled to announce that following a nationwide search, Christian Harris has accepted the newly formed position of Executive Director.

RepGen is preparing to embark on the second phase of our Home Ownership Reparative Transfers (HORT) program pilot this summer. Thanks to your ongoing support, we are prepared to make up to eight additional reparative transfers of $25,000 and assist recipients in the process of finding a home.

A RepGen core value is that we co-learn and co-create together. In that spirit, we expanded our Evaluation Team in March. We also invited all who receive this Newsletter to complete our survey about their 2023 reparations-related engagement. Learn more about our survey results.

All of us need to navigate our next individual and community level steps for learning, healing, and effectively advancing reparations. A great way to do this is to join the RepGen House Meeting Coach Squad.

As part of this Reparation Generation, applicants must find their connection to descendants of American chattel slavery. Watch as applicants learn for the first time, the history of their enslaved ancestors, and experience some of the healing from lost identity.

Reparation Generation will make $25,000 “reparative transfers” to help people in Detroit buy homes.

These aren’t grants or charitable gifts, the organization is quick to point out, but transfers of wealth from one class to another. Most of the funds came from white people in Berkeley and Los Angeles. The Black leaders of the organization determine the criteria for the payments and to whom they go.

Reparation Generation, a national organization providing direct reparative money transfers to Black Americans for wealth-building pursuits, launched a new program that takes a citizen-driven approach to restoration for disenfranchised descendants of American slavery.

Today, Reparation Generation launches as a new, citizen-driven approach to pursuing restoration for disenfranchised descendants of American slavery. They are a multiracial group of Americans proudly joining a national movement for truth and reconciliation. They seek to show reparations in action, and in turn, drive momentum to pass federal reparations for Black Americans.

EVENTS

VIRTUAL HOUSE MEETINGS

While formal government reparations are the goal, Reparation Generation is compelled to act now to demonstrate forms of repair which can make the country we love more just, fair, and inclusive. We invite you to gather with others from around the country in this spirit. Every other month we host a “Meet RepGen” Virtual Housemeeting where we share our “reparations in actions” approach and how this advances the broader reparation movement. In the months in between we host a “Reparations Deep Dive” where we delve into a particular topic of importance related to RepGen’s work or the reparations movement at large. We invite you to sign up for one of our virtual house meetings below!

July 17:Land Back and Reparations, Building Solidarity 

Join us for an important conversation exploring the intersections between the Land Back and Reparations movements. Both movements call for a return—of land, wealth, and power—rooted in histories of dispossession and injustice. Yet they also offer a vision for a more just and liberated future.

In this session, we’ll discuss how Black and Indigenous communities can deepen solidarity, honor each other’s histories, and advance shared struggles for repair and sovereignty.

Come ready to listen, learn, and imagine new possibilities together.

Join us for a powerful conversation exploring how different faith traditions address the call for reparations—both through sacred texts and lived practice. Our panel will feature leaders and scholars from diverse religious backgrounds, each offering insights on how their faith traditions confront historic harm, justice, and repair.

Together, we will examine how spiritual teachings have informed movements for reparations across time, and what they demand of us today. The event will include a rich panel discussion followed by an open Q&A, providing space for collective reflection and deeper understanding.

Come be part of a gathering that bridges faith, justice, and action.

Nov 19:Reparations Deep Dive - Tools for courageous conversations across racial, moral and political divides  

Talking about reparations can feel risky — especially across racial, moral, or political lines. But these are exactly the conversations that matter most. In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how to speak with clarity and courage when the stakes are high. Whether you’re navigating discussions with skeptical White relatives, politically divided colleagues, or folks unsure where they stand, you’ll leave with practical tools, grounded language, and a stronger sense of purpose. Together, we’ll practice turning tension into understanding — and discomfort into momentum for justice.
