Framing the article that way makes more sense, I suppose. I'll have to look for the article you mentioned, understanding what the author is talking about when he says reparations will be helpful in interpreting this article.

I believe that he doesn't give a specific figure. He just made the argument for reparations--as to what those reparations should be, he refers to a bill that a congressman has been introducing every year since 1989 that would fund a formal study into slavery's effects.
