It’s ok. Just add it to that student loan you want the Democrats to pay off for you.

If they are serious let them give up their organs,
starting with their skin and kidneys and eyes.

How big is the school’s endowment? How many of these students have a free ride or exemption?

Paying “reparations” to people who were never slaves.

Now, tax the descendants of the slaves to pay recompense to the families of the 300,000 union troops who died to free them.

That's about $24,480 in "reparations" based on this article.

Today a slave costs about $90 on average worldwide. (Source: Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy. See all Free the Slaves books.)

Wow, blood of thousands of young, white soldiers wasn’t enough. The blood sweat and tears of white Christian abolitionists wasn’t enough. And that was for ACTUAL SLAVES! This is just sick! Disrespectful to the sacrifices so many made for malcontent descendents. Guilty because I am white? Eff off. My ancestors were treated like garbage. Almost every race had slaves and indentured servant ancestors. Why are blacks so special?

It will never stop unless we force it to stop.

This mental idiocy has to stop. Its driving normal people crazy because crazy people are taken seriously.

Camel’s nose in the tent, white guilt, prove how liberal they are, by paying money to people who were never slaves. And indeed, those getting the money are beneficiaries of policies such as affirmative action.

And being paid by people who never owned slaves.

Lunacy.

Why are they not protesting all the nation states in Africa and the Middle East that support slavery right now?

Huh.

My paternal ancestors had one slave - who chose to stay with them like a member of the family after the War, until the end of her life.

My husband’s family were never even here until long after ‘the late unpleasantness’.

Am I ‘guilty as hell but free as a bird’?

Are black students at Georgetown going to be required to pay the reparations fee? Serious question. Since they themselves are descended from slaves in many cases, the NAACP and Al Sharpton et. al could protest on their behalf, how unfair and immoral it would be to apply such fees to black students.
