Judge Mathis emphatically voiced his support for reparations to Black Americans, emphasizing the historic debt owed due to slavery. Highlighting the U.S. defense budget, Mathis stressed, "Economists have concluded that Black reparations would amount to between $13 and $17 trillion. We’re spending $1 trillion a year on defense; just give us half a year." Mathis, who helped draft reparations legislation, argued that the resources are available if prioritized correctly.
The conversation also touched on corporate accountability, naming companies like JPMorgan and Barclays that historically profited from the slave trade as potential contributors to reparations efforts. On local scales, some municipalities have passed reparations ordinances, such as Chicago’s guaranteed income program. Mathis calls for broader action, underscoring, "It’s not about anything other than justice."
