I think we should pay all black Americans who want reparations a form of reparations.
That is, the US takes out a hundred year lease on an enclave in Africa. We provide its water, sewers, electrical and road infrastructure, then build empty buildings and lodgings in it.
A large fence surrounds it, to keep out locals, who are encouraged to build around the enclave to sell goods to those within.
Any black US citizen can go there to live for a year, yet return to the US if not satisfied. After a year, they get permanent residency from the host country and lose their US citizenship.
A separate enclave holds black prisoners who agree to move to Africa. Somewhat different rules.
That is somewhat like how Liberia was created.
It is called Liberia; how did that work out?
Wasn’t Liberia purchased and given to all freed slaves who wanted to go?
