I am in favor of reparations to living slaves paid by living slave owners, including black slave owners who owned more that 15% of black slaves. I am also in favor of whites who were slaves getting reparations.

I also want to see excluded people groups from paying who arrived in this country after 1867, as well as all blacks who arrived after 1867.

Then I want the US to sue the blacks, generally muslims, in western Africa for reimbursement of the cost because they sold the slaves in the first place.

There are quite a lot of people in the US descended from Caribbean islanders of African descent--so if anyone should pay them reparations it should be the Spanish, French, Dutch, or English who enslaved their ancestors.

When are the Egyptians going to pay reparations to the Jews for enslaving the ancient Israelites?
