The Reparations Race

About the Reparations Race: The Reparations Race was founded in December 2022 by Erin Corine Johnson, Founder and CEO of Hola Magnolia Identityworks. Inspired by the story of a DIY reparations movement organized by a small Vermont town in the wake of the murder of George Floyd in 2020, this movement is designed to empower people at the community level to act on behalf of economic restorative justice in tangible ways by pouring resources back into the Black people, communities and business instead of waiting for local and national governments to act on behalf of disenfranchised, underrepresented and underestimated descendants of chattel slavery. Since 2022, the Reparations Race has facilitated the redistribution of over $50K USD in direct cash payments and service-based contributions by non-Black members of the Hola Magnolia Identityworks community of individuals, partners and sponsors. The Reparations Race Organization is a division of Hola Magnolia LLC. Visit us on the web and join our mailing list at reparationsrace.org!
