The Amherst African Heritage Reparation Assembly was created by the Amherst, Massachusetts City Council in June 2021 to develop the town's reparations plan by Oct. 31, 2021.[1] In 2021, the Amherst Town Council approved the creation of a reparations fund. A year later, the council voted to finance the fund through deposits from the city's certified tax cannabis revenue for the previous year. In June 2022, the City Council approved $2,000,000 of initial funding for reparations.[2]

It was made up of six Black residents and one representative from the NGO Reparations for Amherst with the final Assembly consisting of; Heather Lord, Yvonne Mendez, Michele Miller, Alexis Reed, Irvin Rhodes, Amilcar Shabazz, and Debora Bridges.

The group was advised by Robin Rue Simmons, the architect of the Evanston Reparations Committee.[3]
