I have an idea. Let’s offer United States citizenship to all slaves and their descendants who were either brought here or born here. That should be reparations enough.

Hey AU, you’ll get nothing and you’ll like it.

Will they go after their own tribal leaders who sold their own people into slavery?
Oh, there’s not enough money there?
I understand...

Leading scholars, ambassadors and government ministers from Africa and beyond are examining economic relations and the responsibility of the
original, black slave masters, who traded the slaves to the white devils, in undoing the slave trade damage they inflicted on Africa and her Diaspora.
There, fixed it.

Haha! I think we did that about 140 years ago, didn’t we? IIRC former slaves were also promised “40 acres and a mule” weren’t they? Well, most of Alaska is Federal land...

The Africans should paying reparations to themselves. They were the ones, who after all, sold their own people for profit into slavery! Pot meet kettle.
