The final California Reparations Report came out today. I just started reading it but thought I'd search for the words "appraiser" and "appraisal." Sure enough they're in there because Paul Austin and Tenisha Tate-Austin told their false story about alleged racial discrimination to the Task Force.
"Consider Paul Austin and Tenisha Tate-Austin, who bought a home in Marin City in 2016. Three years later, a white appraiser valued their home for $500,000 less than it was worth, calling it a “distinct, marketable area.”27 “I took that as code word as: it’s a Black area,” said Paul Austin, who testifed before the Task Force that he felt physically sick when he read the appraisal report."
The statement above is totally false. I sent in a correction. It was not valued for $500,000 less than what it was worth. The appraisals were never made public. I wrote an in depth fully research article about the Austin v Miller case here. https://mary--cummins.blogspot.com/2021/02/alleged-discrimination-home-appraisal.html
They were not discriminated against or low balled by the first appraiser. Marin City is a distinct area just like Pacoima, Beverly Hills, La Habra are distinct areas. The second appraiser came in way too high. My article above goes into the values in great depth. The second appraiser is the one who should be investigated by the California Attorney General, Bureau of Real Estate Appraisers, lose their license and be charged with bank fraud. The harm this case caused to the first appraiser is beyond comprehension.
I haven't gotten far in the report but did notice a few important things. The report mentions the racial and other bias against Mexicans, Native Americans, Asians, Jews, Catholics, immigrants, women, poor... All of these other groups were also affected by racial, color, gender and other biases. The report isn't about slavery per se as California was never a slave state. The report is about racial harm against black people living in California before 1900. Mexicans, Native Americans, Asians, Italians were lynched. Native Americans, Mexicans lost their lands and property. Mexicans, Native Americans, Immigrants were used as near slave labor. Women, men, the poor were raped by slave owners, employers, government sanctioned church... Mexicans, Native Americans, Asians weren't allowed to attend public school with whites. All this happened in California. Every state, nation, people has done truly horrible things to others throughout all of human history.
The Governor and others already said there will be no monetary reparations. California has a budget deficit. The report was done to educate the nation and for positive PR for California and it's politicians. The state would also have to consider the harm caused to everyone else before they ever cut a check. It would be discrimination to give money to only one group based on race. There was already a case here in Oregon over Covid funds. (The Oregon CARES Act Discrimination Lawsuit is Great Northern Resources Inc., et al. v. Katy Coba, et al., Case No. 3:20-cv-01866-IM (L), in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon, Portland Division.) They wanted to give some Covid funds to blacks only because they were more affected than whites but the state was sued due for discrimination. Latinos who were equally negatively impacted by Covid sued for discrimination so the funds had to be given to everyone who applied. Any reparations would be the same.
If we were to do a California Reparations Report for all races, colors, religions, genders... everyone in California would end up owing everyone else money. It'd cancel itself out. You'd also have to offset benefits of living in the state minus harm caused by past actions in the state by the state. I'm Mexican, Indigenous, African and Euro. Half of my ancestral family was harmed by the other half. The reports would just cost the state a lot of money and I'd probably get half a cent. I'll pass on that waste of funds. I personally am just very happy to live here in California. I'm lucky I was born in this state and in this country.
