Story summary
- The Fulton County reparations taskforce released a 600-page report that values forced Black labor at $903 billion in lost wages.
- It records that enslaved workers built roads and bridges, and that the Ku Klux Klan helped dismantle the Bagley Park Black community, a parcel now worth $60 million with a $15 million descendant claim.
- County leaders have not approved reparations while the taskforce stays active through 2027 to propose cash payments or policy changes.
