**** Agree, start with the Brits. ****
That was already tried. Maybe ten years ago now. And the reparation hustlers LOST. It went all the way to the English High Court. Basically, the court ruled that since slavery was legal at the time, no law was broke and as such, NOTHING was owed.
It didn't get much press here (natch) but I LMAO when I read about it. So the only 'sucker' left for the reparation hustlers is the USA.
An aside, I'm sick of hearing of "250 years of slavery", "400 years, of slavery", yada yada, yada. Being generous, slavery in "America" existed for a grand total of Eighty-Seven Years - period (1776-1863). And if we go from the US Constitution ratified in 1787, only 76 years.

Acually, start with the MUSLEMS....
Muslem traders traveled Africa buying the slaves from the tribes, and then sold them on the coasts.
And it was a thriving trade LONG before the Brits got involved.
