In the U.S. these efforts have historically been undermined by racism. “When Affirmative Action was White” (https://www.amazon.com/When-Affirmative-Action-White-Twentie...) makes a case for the G.I.

The current U.S. president’s proposal to link social services to country of origin seem to indicate that proposals like “Summer camp” (let alone reparations) are likely to face similar opposition.
