Historic Reparations Lawsuit Filed in Texas
The Texas NAACP announced Jan. 20 it plans for a lawsuit against J.P.
Morgan Chase & Co., WestPoint Stevens Inc., Union Pacific Railroad
and 100 unnamed defendants on allegations that they profited from
slavery, which the lawsuit defines as a crime against humanity. The
lawsuit is the latest of a number that have been filed in states across
the South seeking payments from companies that were either directly or
indirectly involved in financing slavery. Lawyers handling the case
believe it will be consolidated with the other lawsuits in Chicago.
