That’s a facetious remark to a statement that had meaning a century ago. We’re all out of africa but dating back thousands of years ago. Raparations for slavery made sense for the years 1857-early 1900s for the generation that grew up as slaves. The fact is that some didn’t get this, due to Jim Crow laws etc. But the fact is also that it is multiple generations since the last slave in the USA, so reparations have no meaning now, especially since the public has intermixed so much (there are people who have slaves as well as slave owners as their ancestors, what to do about them? Or even people whose ancestors were poor serfs in Russia or Sweden at the time of the civil war)
