Danny Glover, Democratic lawmakers say 'we can't wait' longer for slavery reparations

"The time for reparations is now," former Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer said during a discussion with Glover.

Actor and activist Danny Glover and former 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Tom Steyer joined Democratic lawmakers to call for the passage of a bill to set up a federal slavery reparations committee, emphasizing that "we can't wait" any longer for reparations.

"We can't wait," Steyer said during a virtual discussion held as part of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's annual legislative conference. "This is the moment. The time for reparations is now. We must confront and deal with our history together and repair it as best we can together, if we're ever to move on together."

I support this 100%, absolutely. But only democrats should pay it since they are the ones who owned slaves, started a war to keep blacks enslaved, and oppressed the hell out of blacks forever afterwards. Let democraps pay it out of their own pockets. Keep the Union taxpayers out of it. Come on, let's join Danny! Reparations NOW! Nancy Pelosi, pay reparations NOW!!! The Democrap party is in massive debt to the black race!

Danny Glover is absolutely free to give all of his money away he earned from those nasty white people.

600,000+ dead soldiers say you already got your reparations. KMA, Glover.
I’m so tired of blacks with their hand out. Glover is a millionaire, FCOL. How about reparations being your ancestors were allowed to stay here and breed after the slavery era was ended. Will that work?

I have a better idea.

1. Pull up your pants and get a belt.
2. Stop knocking up everything that moves.
3. Get a job and support yourself and your offspring.

Will this then finalize all claims on whites? Will we be able to treat blacks as adults and expect them to care for themselves? Will a black felon shot in the act no longer be blamed for cities being burned?

Spread your wealth, Glover, spread it to all those slaves. Nice to be spouting nonsense and hate from his multi million dollar gated mansions. When these freaks can point out the slaves I own, then I’ll pay up. Otherwise, they can pound sand.

Electing obamy once was supposed to end it. It didn’t end it even electing him twice.

All my ancestors got here after the Emancipation Proclamation, so I don’t have to pay it, right?

Glover pushing the false victim ideology that has enslaved the black community for generations.

Why doesn’t Glover speak out on true reality of the violent black culture?

93% black homicides are black-on-black
80% black babies born into fatherless homes
25 million black babies murdered & organs harvested by Planned Butchhood

Reparation was paid in full in blood lost during the American Civil War. No further payment is due especially when you consider that there is no former slave or slave owner alive in the US today.

The closest we have is Kamala Harris who’s grandmother was a slave owner.

Sounds Great

How about a 20% TAX on ALL Admission Prices to ANY Entertainment Venue and a 30% Assessment on the Incomes, Tips, Wags and ASSETS of ALL Entertainment Performers, Creators,Producers,Directors,... to PAY REPARATIONS to Blacks enslaved by DEMOCRATS!!!

Many black citizens are inelligible for reparations having already received them in the form of white genes

Harold Ford Jr’s mother gave him the ultimate gift from a black mother..... a white father. On the Fox Special Report panel, he is whiter than several others

I’ve yet to see any proposed metrics, methods, criteria, etc, on how reparations would be distributed. But nevertheless, I read a comment somewhere awhile back that stated we should do reparations as those granted payments would turn around and spend it. All this money pumped into the economy would be very stimulative, create growth, etc. So, I say let’s do it. Get it done and over with.

“we can’t wait”

Where does this rich a-hole get the idea he needs reparations????

Just like the rest of the black millionaires shooting their mouths off to shield themselves because they have already made it.

Just another trick to take from those who never owned slaves and give to those who were never slaves.
