BLM Demands Reparations For ‘Environmental Racism’

Black Lives Matter (BLM) activists have put out a list of policy demands that includes the government and corporations handing out reparations for years of “environmental racism” and “food apartheid.”

“Reparations for the wealth extracted from our communities through environmental racism, slavery, food apartheid, housing discrimination and racialized capitalism in the form of corporate and government reparations focused on healing ongoing physical and mental trauma, and ensuring our access and control of food sources, housing and land,” reads BLM’s list of policy demands.

This is such bullship!

Sounds like a bunch of stupid white people wrote this for some bougie rich black kids to say to make BLM appeal to the NPR crowd.

Your average black parent (no S), if you ever brought up AGW or "environmental justice" baloney?

“environmental racism” — that’s a new one. They must be running out of slogans.

Guess they prefer tree living to skyscrapers?

But we know that’s not what they really mean.

“control of food sources, housing and land”

Ay, por favor-esta mierda otra vez? All that has been theirs in Haiti, S Africa, and places in S and Central America for awhile-in some places more than a century-and those people are still starving and living in huts made out of sticks, banana leaves, tin and roofing felt, without running water, indoor plumbing or electricity-because hardly anyone seems to know how to plant crops, keep and raise livestock, land use for max yield of crops or provide basic water and electrical services-and the governments are too corrupt to do anything but steal...

I just don’t think I’m on board with allowing some racist organization to f*** us over like that here...

At first I thought it was about the bureau of land management.

As I read I came to the conclusion that there is a simple solution for this. They want to live like third world era. So fly them back to Africa. They can have all the community based sustainable farming they want

Sounds like the end goal is claiming a state as theirs.

Agreed. They have food deserts because they steal them out of existence, both internally and externally. They have destroyed a half dozen shopping centers in the St. Louis area then beef about having to drive 50 miles to get designer clothing.

I will gladly pay for a One Way Ticket to Liberia, or anyplace else in Africa for 5 BLM Members as long as they Officially Renounce their Citizenship and NEVER COME BACK!!!

Take those reparations.

“Reparations for the wealth extracted from our communities through environmental racism,”

This is a setup for “green collar economy” funds.

I don’t think any of the 50 states have been so totally trashed by criminal EBT card holders that the working people living there are willing to leave and give it over to those people to ruin completely-besides, like I said in an earlier post, most of them have no idea that for something to be sustainable, it has to be managed and maintained-that takes HARD WORK-you also have to save seeds for next year’s crops, and keep some livestock for breeding, instead of just eating everything-the welfare bunch buys stuff on the EBT card, uses it up then demands more while doing nothing productive...

I live in a remote area, and I grew up in one-kids out here are still brought up to be self sufficient and plenty of us know how to live off grid-and have done so-but I don’t see the BLM types having enough self discipline to do any of that-if they want their own place to use as they please, let’s find them another country with people willing to give them endless acreage and resources to trash...

Sadly, it's "BLAME WHITEY", 24/7, for these pukes, when it is THEY who destroy everything they go near.

There are wealthy, successful blacks. Maybe the birdbrains need to figure out how they managed to do well.

Yes, some were born into wealthy families, who did well, from right after the end of the Civil War, till now, but others have risen out of poverty and NOT through the entertainment nor sports venues, that these wannabes all imagine that they can do too, but can't.

They have no sense of personal responsibility. That is the pathology of the Black lower class that is migrating to the Black Privileged.

If you've never seen EMPEROR JONES, it's well worth seeing. It was originally a play and then an earlyish movie staring Paul Robeson. Long before blacks turned their neighborhoods into complete hellholes, it tells the story of a black criminal, who gets to Africa and becomes the emperor of the country he lands in and destroys it.

The "gimme dats" don't want to want to work, they don't even want to "think" !
