Hi, everybody. This is Juleika-Lantigua. I'm the executive producer of this show. I want to personally invite you to listen to our new documentary series. It's called Still Paying the Price. It is an in-depth exploration of the question of reparations. Who should receive them? How should they be handled? What is owed?

We talked to incredible people whose very lives have been dedicated to answering this question and to people who have a very clear sense of what needs to be done and for whom.

If you have an opinion, if you don't know anything about it, this is a great place to begin the exploration.

So listen to Still Paying the Price anywhere you listen to this show or go to our website at stillpaying the price.

Thank you.

It was a simple promise.

We didn't get 40 acres in a mule.

As the country grapples with how to write the wrongs of history,

the call for reparations only grows louder.

For the descendants of the enslaved,

it's time to collect on that debt.

America was built on this entire system

of using the free labor of stolen bodies from Africa.

I'm Pamela Kirkland, a journalist and co-editor of still paying the price, reparations in real terms.

This series from LWC Studios goes beyond conversations about whether or not reparations should be paid,

but how and to whom?

You can go on hating black people if you want to.

Just cut the check.

We uncover stories that have been buried.

Stories that reveal the profound impact of the ugly history on which this country was built.

From a civil rights cold case.

Setting the record straight, death ruled justifiable.
