California entered the union in 1850 as a free state—yet black Californians are about to cash out big on reparations, thanks to Gov. Gavin Newsom.

So, who exactly is owed and for what? And what is Newsom’s angle here, considering his state is already facing massive deficits? Victor Davis Hanson breaks down California’s newly approved reparations agenda on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”

“ The black population of California is about 5.4% of the 41 million people. Who are going to be paying the reparations? The so-called white oppressor, victimizer class is only 42%. It is a minority. 

“ Who is black in a multiracial, intermarried culture? Are we going to go back to the Elizabeth Warren rule? Do we need DNA badges? Are we gonna use the old Confederate measure of one-sixteenth? 16% to 17% of the California population identify as multiracial. How do we know who is white, who is Hispanic, who is black? It's very hard to adjudicate that.”
