African or American ,pick one but not both
What about the freed blacks that had slaves themselves?
What about blacks who also have white ancestors? Do they pay reparations to themselves? And what about the blacks in America that owned slaves.....do they have to pay up? And what about the whites who owned no slaves?
LOL!
They will discover they were sold into slavery by their own families!
Maybe their white parts could pay back their african parts.
Try it.
CW-II is way overdue.
What, you mean reparations from the African tribes who kidnapped and sold your ancestors? Or the Muslim tribes who are still at it today? Hmmmm???
If DNA shows them to be 50% white, do they have to pay reparations to themselves?
Don’t give a crap where their ancestors came from 4+ generations ago. We owe present day black people absolutely nothing beyond what we owe any other human being.
They want money?
Here’s an idea.....WORK for it!
Anthony Johnson (1600-1670) comes to mind. In fact, he was the first slaveholder in the colonies.
What about Africans who came here and were never slaves?
I did not own any slaves and I ain't in the least responsible for what my ancestors did or did not do.
Keep it up with this reparation crap and we'll see CWII real quick.
Not one damned penny.
Pull up your stinking pants and get a job.
reperspirations
Who'da thunk it.
More strange stories everyday.
Next we'll hear that Trump has won Iowa.
Ha! American blacks will pick America in a heartbeat. Do you want to live in a continent that has no running water, electricity, dangerous wild animals, and is ruled by military dictatorships and Kleptocrats? That's why I find it funny when blacks say America sucks, but never think about the alternative of living in abject poverty and misery. And the dirty secret is that Africans HATE blacks in America.
What about descendants of Union Soldiers killed in battle? They should get it all.
Why not take the money from Africa? The slaves were captured by the kings of West Africa to get rid of their tribal competition. I’ve seen the palace of the Dabomey Kings in Benin. His throne had the skulls of captured kings embedded in it.
Or the slave traders, many of which were Muslim. The slaves went many places, not just America.
It was muslims back then selling fellow Africans into slavery.
And you are right, they still practice slavery today.
Mad Mo made it so.
