Tatishe Nteta Quoted on the Concept of Reparations

Tatishe Nteta, Associate Professor of Political Science and Director of the UMass Amherst Poll, is quoted in an opinion piece exploring the role white people have played in racism in America. In reference to the concept of reparations, Nteta explained “for opponents of reparations, it is not about the cost or the difficulty of the policy, but about perceptions of the worthiness of the contemporary recipients of cash payments.” (The Root, 6/30/21)
