proposed amendment to Illinois Constitution on racism

Below the fold is a proposed amendment to the Illinois Constitution to be a first step toward making Illinois a state committed to reducing racism over the long haul.

I believe it would make Illinois the first state to be anti-racism (as opposed to "race neutral" in the constitution). It also explicitly links racism to white supremacy.

The theory is that Illinois would obligate itself to quantify racism & work toward reducing racism over time.
