Reparations in Asheville, reparations everywhere…
Dr. Dwight D. Mullen
“It is seen by the Black community often as a check — a check for past harms, and this is the restitution for it. On the other hand, it’s seen by white folks as, ‘Money out of my pocket for something I didn’t do,’”
— Dr. Dwight D. Mullen
