Religious leaders in Boston have demanded 'white churches' give millions of dollars in reparations to the city's black community.
The activist clergy also called on them to back a push for the City of Boston to pay $15 billion in reparations for its historical role in the slave trade.
The event at Resurrection Lutheran Church was organized by the Boston People's Reparations Commission, which made the $15 billion demand.

Can we discount any welfare checks they have gotten over the last 50 years as paying forward some of what is owed.
Boston is already the most racist city in the country—these folks just made it worse.
This one is on the nutty “religious groups” false churches...how about donate to worthy patriotic causes instead?
15 billion, if EVERYONE IN BOSTON chipped in, you are somewhere around 22k per person.
Morons.
The only acceptable form of ‘reparations’ is one-way coach airfare back to Africa.
Seems everyone I have ever known from Boston was a jerk. Arrogant self righteous nauseating progressive. Fools.
“Religious leaders in Boston have demanded ‘white churches’ give millions of dollars in reparations to the city’s black community.”
“white churches” in Boston were at the forefront on the movement to abolish slavery long before the Civil War. I guess no good deed goes unpunished.
How about fried chicken and watermelon for life?
Money for Nuffin
So if Boston is fined for contributing more to slavery than others, can the states not in the Union in the 1860s and all the Northern states which did not have slavery in the 1800s be exempt for reparations?
Example: The Territory of Michigan had “underground railroad” hiding centers in Ypsilanti and elsewhere commemorated with historical plaques. Did they pay their dues?
The church is ELCA, meaning it is non-Lutheran, non-Christian heretical. Its pastor is a woman who immigrated from Ghana, home of African socialism and where W.E.B. DuBois moved to when he couldn’t stand living in the US anymore.
Tell these bigots they have worn out their welcome in the US. Buy a one way ticket to Africa contingent they do not return or they pay back the ticket.
The Bible speaks on money more than any other subject...and nothing I’ve read says much good about it.
Jesus said:
[24] “No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and be enslaved to money”.
Matthew 6:24 NLT
Jesus also warns about false prophets, I suspect these types of people are who he refers to.
[15] “Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves.”
Matthew 7:15 NLT
$15 million will only give every black resident of Boston (125,874 per city-data.com) about $120. LOL~!!!!!!!!
Time to start taxing the deadbeat churches so the money can be used to push RACISM AGAINST CAUCASIANS IN AMERICA by giving great sums of money to the darkies only because the color of their skin. Screw those so-called “religious leaders”. Nobody cares about them anyway.
See: Black Slaveowners: Free Black Slave Masters in South Carolina, 1790-1860, Larry Koger, Jefferson: McFarland, 1985.Interesting that slave ownership in the US was color-blind, while today's call for reparations is "racist" in attributing a "value" to a skin color.
Sounds like extortion.
Don’t owe a penny to descendants of slaves.
