Chicago suburb sued for paying reparations
Evanston, Illinois, a Chicago suburb, was the first municipality in the U.S. to launch a government-funded reparations program for Black residents. But now a conservative group has filed a class-action lawsuit claiming the program discriminates against non-Black residents. Emmanuel Felton, race and ethnicity reporter for the Washington Post, joined CBS News to discuss the situation.
