Black victims who received a settlement from The Franciscan Friars order say they were given $235,000 less than what white victims were rewarded for their abuse claims.
Two Black men in the Mississippi Delta who say they were abused by clergymen were secretly paid $15,000 each within the past few months to remain quiet, The Associated Press reported Tuesday. Meanwhile, white victims were granted an average of $250,000. https://atlantablackstar.com/2019/08/28/poor-black-catholic-church-victims-receive-at-least-200k-less-in-payout-than-white-ones-we-had-to-take-what-we-could/
Holy crap (no pun intended), the difference between the payments from Black and White victims is insane. This only proves who’s lives really matter when it comes to getting justice in the injustice system.
