That’s right. It’s looks like a slush fund for left wing causes in the making.


This is chump change. Harvard’s endowment is $38 billion. They could peel off a billion to finance left wing activism and not even notice it.

The left is stoking race hatred and will do so forever, especially around elections.

Through all means possible. Media, politics, ‘entertainment’, whatever.

They just hijacked the ‘Watchmen’ franchise to spew sjw race hatred even more. Saw 1st episode and won’t be ‘watching’ it ever again.

Are the payments going to be made based on the 1860 census, or other documentation?

It’s going to be difficult calculating the distributions to the descendants of the property owners.

The lunacy is clear. The “virtue signaling” is absurd.
If I had $1,000 and gave you $27.00, would you think that I was being generous? What a vacant gesture! I might give the black seminarians $2.70 and tell them to “Piss off!”

No, I’ll tell them to piss off and give them nothing!

Hey Bat,
Another way of illustrating the point:

1 million seconds = about 11 days
27 million seconds = about 271 days
1 billion seconds = about 32 years
1 trillion seconds = about 32,000 years

They ain’t round offs, going from a million to a billion.
one Trillion is one thousand Billion.
Tell that to the folks in Washington, DC!
Warmest Regards,

It says money will be given away in scholarships to descendants of slaves [...]

Slaves? Like the ones who marched out of Egypt, led by Moses?

Some goes to “booze, birds and fast cars” so it’s not all wasted.

It says money will be given away in scholarships to descendants of slaves and underrepresented groups.

So Malia Obama qualifies.

The tribes in Africa sold the slaves they captured.
