Question: A study by Duke University estimated that reparations could inject up to $10 trillion (about $31,000 per person in the US) (about $31,000 per person in the US) into the US economy over 10 years, boosting wages and creating jobs. This economic stimulus could benefit not only Black Americans,[review rule on using commas to connect independent clauses with a conjunction; is a comma needed] but also the entire country, providing a much-needed boost after years of economic inequality and racial injustice.
You are correct, a comma is needed before the conjunction "but" because it connects two independent clauses. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. It's important to note that while the potential economic benefits of reparations are significant, the moral and ethical considerations of reparations must also be taken into account. Many argue that reparations are necessary as a means of acknowledging and addressing the historic injustices that Black Americans have faced. Whether or not reparations will be enacted remains to be seen, but it's important to continue having meaningful conversations about racial inequality and justice in our country.
