Various community members, including those who work on the Repair Project, discuss the failed plan to create equality in America through reparations. The founder outlines how the movement began and a scientist describes how the algorithm was built. Members of the Repair Project talk about the process they experienced in its creation and downfall. Some discuss how the budget directly came from abolishing the police. Police officers are interviewed and resent the act. Crisis management workers discuss how cops used to cause issues and expenses in their communities. History professors talk about how reparations don't just give money to the victims but can give survivors resources and history to acknowledge trauma. The money does not just go to marginalized groups but to school systems and areas of lower property values to make things more equal. The reparations began to fail as non-marginalized groups found ways to abuse the marginalized. The former white mayor states he had to head the project because it seemed less like theft and more like penance to his white constituents.
