The same as me. Some of my ancestors came here in 1690, but they never owned a slave that I can find. But even if they owned thousands, what’s that to me?

The unassimilated gibsmedats will say you only have what you own today because of what was donein 1690 (even if you started out homeless & penniless).
Any time someone pushes for “reparations”, then they have acknowledged that they have no hope blacks will ever assimilate or be productive. Blacks with their acts together don’t even mention this silliness. This book mentions 250 years of slavery; “black leaders” use 400. The fact is that this country had legalized slavery for less than 80 years (from the end of the Revolution until the Civil War); anyone using other time frams are being disingenuous (as though we owe blacks for Spain’s actions pre-dating out country).
This is one issue that keeps races divided; it serves the Dems well (until the other non-whites they reach out to realize they’d be getting the bill).
