In theory, yes. In practice, I worry that it might make Black Americans the target of aggression.

If it happens, the usual political mouthpieces will waste no time in trying to convince White people that Black people are getting special treatment. And though it would contradict their stance on reparations, you better believe they'd do what they could to try and convince Asian Americans and Native Americans that the government was holding out on them while giving Black Americans preferential treatment.

Is it worth it for every Black household to get an additional $700 if it means a 20% increase in race-related crime? If you think it's worth that, sure, I'll take a slight tax increase to hold the US government accountable. But just know the fight that people are likely to have ahead of them if that happens.
