You reminded me of an old post of mine about an outrage perpetrated by Federal soldiers. See: Link,

Must be why millennial are so stupid. They really are stupid.

... their suffering.
****************************
While there were some cruel slave owners, most owners considered their slave to be valuable assets who worked their tobacco and cotton fields. They provided food, clothing and shelter for them and permitted them to live as families and have children. .....The movies and books tend to make them all look like people who were always beating their slaves.

Its not as much stupid as been having been taught garbage and being kept ignorant by govt schools.

[Noumenon]

Should read: “Millennials are more open to idea of slavery”.

Because that’s what they’re asking for.

[NoLibZone]

DNC must pay.

The Confederacy was made up of Dems.

[DAC21]

Thanks to LBJ they have been getting reparations for 50 years.

Millennials are quite the bunch. They favor permitting people to choose their sex among over 50 possibilities. Well I’m okay with reparations too . . . if you can choose to be a sex you clearly are not, then you can choose among many races to identify as too. For the free gibsmedat cheese, I’m a black woman. Show me the money!

"We have been paying reparations for 50 years."

Some mistakes you never stop paying for. Obama is one of them.

[LeoWindhorse]

all that I mention DID actually happen , much of it to my own family ancesters and their property . The Yankees in the South were like the Nazis in the Ukraine . Reparations my @ss.... Never !

Good piece, and certainly one that will never see the inside of an American history textbook.

Thanks!

As I recall, the African slave trade was driven by the inability of Irish slaves in the British colonies and Indian slaves in the Spanish & Brazilian colonies to work in the extreme heat; they dropped like flies.

Millennials were not asked what they would be willing to pay for that opinion. Nor were they asked how much the balloon welfare payment would be or who would have to pay that bill.

Of course not - those that think it's fine are under the impression it is the government's money paying for it - as it pays their useless ways....

[TwelveOfTwenty]

I'm all in favor of making the Democrats pay reparations, since were the ones who fought for slavery. The Democrats should also have to pay reparations for the hundreds of thousands of lives that were killed to end slavery.

And, they should have to pay reparations to the Republicans for attacking them during the Civil Rights movement.

So where's mine?

We shoulda picked our own cotton.
