Does this mean I don’t get any reparations for my great-great grandfather risking his life for four years on Civil War battlefields to liberate the slaves, of whom he had never owned a single one? Dang, there goes my beer money.
My great uncle was held in Andersonville prison camp at the age of 16. He lived until 1927, but I doubt he received “reperations”, and I doubt that any black person thanked him.
