The Steering Committee of the Hayward Russell City Reparative Justice Project will hold a public meeting on March 29 to provide an update on its work exploring potential local government responses to the forced relocation of Russell City’s mostly Black and Latinx residents during the early 1960s

The meeting will be held on the Zoom online meeting platform starting at 6 p.m. Wednesday, March 29, with Hayward Mayor Mark Salinas, City Manager Kelly McAdoo, and Community Services Commission Chair Artavia Berry attending to respond to questions about the City’s expectations for the Project.

Also scheduled to attend is Chris Lodgson, a lead organizer with Coalition for a Just and Equitable California (CJEC) and American Redress Coalition of California (ARCC), two grassroots organizations working for reparations and reparative justice for descendants of U.S. chattel slavery living in California.
