The National Reparations Town Hall took place on Thursday, December 4, 2025, streamed live from Historic Second Baptist Church in Evanston, Illinois. This special program was part of the Fifth Annual Symposium on Local & State Reparations and marked the sixth anniversary of Evanston’s historic local reparations initiative.
The town hall brought together local leaders, community members, and national partners to reflect on Evanston’s progress and share updates from cities developing their own local reparations models.
