When will they collect this money from the African warlords who sold their brothers into slavery?

This is a slush fund for BLM and other inner-city groups and so-called black “leaders.”

Reparations had been debated for decades prior to this past summer, without any results.

And that’s the idea. The political class sews racial division. Promises something later and collects taxpayer money now for their favored NGOs to “study” the problem. The NGOs get rich and the politicians have their perpetual action item to dangle in front of low-info voters who seem to forget from election to election that everything is promised and nothing meaningful, like actual job opportunities, is ever delivered.

IF republican governors had NY backbone at all, they would threaten to secede from the nation if this goes through and explain. To the people that Americans paid by the 1000s with their lives to free slaves, and are still paying through welfare and taxes, and there is no further need for reparations because reparations have already been payed.

Threaten to begin a conglomeration of republican states called the new untied states of Republicans. Democrats not welcomed. . LEt the democrats run their own states into the ground if they want, but leave us the heck out of the destruction of htis great nation.

Within 10 15 years or so the leftists states will be egging the republican states for money

And the stupid, myopic, retarded American liberal will applaud this because he is told that's the "NOW" thing to embrace. BLM, Antifa, Fag rights, and reparations.

The stupid American liberal might not like it, but he'll pretend he does lest he be branded "another racist cracker."

Let's start with the truth that blacks owned black slaves.

Let's also start with forcing payment from those who actually oppressed black Americans - no one alive today.

Let's force payment from the organization that perpetuated crimes against black Americans then and still does today - the Democrat Party, starting with Hillary Clinton who claimed Ku Klux Klan leader Senator Byrd as her mentor.

Which means they will not act on reparations. Just bread & circuses for the sheeple.

This is all about getting back the many, many blacks who are deserting the Plantation due to the Trump agenda which saw Blacks enjoy the lowest unemployment recorded in our history.

Minorities are wise to the Left. The Hispanics figured it out a few yrs ago and the Asians will soon join them after they get over their astonishment that the Democrats view them no differently than they do the other minorities as mindless drones whose vote can be for a few cents and a never to be kept promise.

I’m guessing that Biden got a lot less of the Black vote than the “official” (ha, ha) vote tallies indicate. This is simply an attempt to buy back millions of voters who strayed off the plantation.

Seems like a good reason for the start of CWII - I never owed a slave! Never known a person of color who was a slave! Yes I am white, but their have been may days where I felt like I was been treated like, worked to death like I was a slave! Our GOVT is beginning to treat us like slaves! What you say to the idea that it is time to stop that SH^T?

How about reparations to the families of the 300,000 dead Union soldiers since their deaths apparently mean nothing in modern conversation.

Muhammad Ali, after getting a good long look at Africa, said ‘Thank God my ancestors were on those slave ships’.

Sows...not sews...

I'd like to close this slippery argument. If I was in charge, I'd use a light meter (to skin) to determine the threshold for payment, then award stocks, not to be paid out until eligible for Social Security. Corporations and recipient receive investment.

Recipient-citizen is firmly "vested" in America--encouraging votes for industry and the economy. Reparation-talk fades away.

Hi.

Since no one who owned slaves is alive today, and there’s no former slaves alive today, who gets the “reparations?”

What if I’m married to a black woman. Do we get reparations? Or just her?

Or, because she is married to a caucasian, she doesn’t get any money?

The Balkinization of America continues.
