Yes, it's true. I'm that Wayne Allyn Root. I'm the nationally syndicated conservative radio talk show host. And former conservative television host on Newsmax TV. And bestselling conservative author of 14 books -- including "Trump Rules," "The Ultimate Obama Survival Guide," "Angry White Male" and "The Murder of the Middle Class."
I'm the last guy you'd ever imagine coming out in support of reparations for black Americans. But it's true. I'm going to be the first high-profile conservative to support reparations.
Black Americans deserve reparations. Let's be honest. Look at their cities in ruins. Black inner cities in America look like Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the atomic bombs hit.
Have you been to any of them lately? Of course not. What sane person would take a chance by driving through the Brownsville neighborhood in Brooklyn, or Crown Heights, or Bedford Stuyvesant, or Harlem or the infamous South Bronx? Or how about Chicago's black South Side? How about virtually all-black inner cities in Detroit; Baltimore; East St Louis; Newark, New Jersey; Oakland, California; Liberty City in Miami; Cleveland; New Orleans, Memphis, Tennessee; Atlanta and more. The list goes on and on.
These places are synonymous with murder, violent gangs and violent crime. Black cities and neighborhoods are a war zone. A black-on-black genocide. An American tragedy. Not to mention the drug needles, poop, pee, condoms and garbage that litter their mean and hopeless streets.
Black lives do matter. So, yes, they do deserve reparations.
But who is to blame? It's sure not white Americans. Most of us have had nothing to do with the decline of black America. The vast majority of white Americans have never done a bad thing to a black person in our lives. We don't run their cities. We don't go near their cities. We literally have nothing to do with black America.
And none of us were alive for slavery or the civil war, or Jim Crow. My grandparents came to America in the 1920s. They lived in New York. They experienced their own prejudice and discrimination. My relatives had nothing to do with slavery, racism or any civil rights violations.
So, yes blacks are owed reparations. But who's to blame? There's only one common denominator: DEMOCRATS.
The Democratic Party and Democratic politicians are to blame.
It's the Democratic Party and Democratic politicians who should pay the trillions of dollars. It's the policies of the Democratic Party that have led to poverty; misery; violent crime through the roof; retail theft on a level never imagined; homelessness; hopelessness; rampant drug dealing and addiction; no fathers in black homes; burned-out buildings; abandoned stores; lack of supermarkets; and streets filled with poop, pee, garbage, condoms and drug needles.
A Republican on the streets of a black inner-city neighborhood is just a rumor. Outside of white cops, no whites go anywhere near those neighborhoods, let alone run them. They are run 100% by Democrats.
So, next time you ask for reparations for black America, start with the DNC. Then knock on the doors of Obama, Biden, Kamala, Hillary, Pelosi and Schumer. For good measure, you might also stop by the offices of Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and BLM. What have they ever done for black people? Nothing.
They scream, protest, threaten, intimidate, even inspire hatred, rioting, looting, burning and murder. But when the dollars flow in from guilty white America, corporations, and the federal government, activist leaders like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and the founders of BLM get rich. But the black people living in those terrible conditions get little or nothing. Nothing ever changes with Democrats in charge.
And then there's the teacher's unions. They get hundreds of billions of federal and local dollars. Black kids get nothing. Nothing ever changes with failing black schools.
So, yes, I vote for reparations. Let the Democratic Party and Democratic politicians pay. Along with the teacher's unions and BLM. Those are the correct groups to blame. They're in control. They put you in these terrible circumstances. They should pay the damages.
Democrats owe black America. Democrats should be paying the reparations.
TRUE
W.A.R. BUMP!
Who owes American blacks reparations:
Democrats (wanted slavery, fought to keep slavery, were KKK);
Britts (bought slaves from muslims, sold slaves to America);
Muslims (captured Africans, sold them as slaves to others).
AMEN.
While we're thinking about it.....don't they owe us Western Europeans some rent for the use of our culture?

I’m all for reparations IF:
1) the only people that collect them can document that their ancestors were slaves, and
2) the people paying the reparations are only those that are documented descendants of slave owners.
That won’t get very far.
The case can be made that poor blacks in America has squandered billions in “reparations” (programs) since the early 1960s
I will disagree in part with his comments about Rev. Jackson. He may be a dem operative and part of the problem now, but he took a stand when it was needed during the Civil Rights movement.
This article reminds me of Harry Truman’s famous reply when a reporter asked if he was going to give em hell.
“I’LL TELL THE TRUTH AND THEY’LL THINK IT’S HELL’
Nice try but a weak attempt. This effort is the same tactic Rush tried in 1992, where he declared that he was going to vote for Bill Clinton. We were all shocked and appalled. We were disappointed in Rush. We thought Rush was smarter, better than that. We thought that we had misjudged his character. Only, he explained later it was just a ploy to get us voters to see that character counts. Clinton had no character so don’t fall for Clinton’s charm.
We got Rush’s point but no one appreciated being played. Rush never did it again, to my recollection.
Wayne Alan Root, I get your point and agree with the sentiment (make democrats own up to their policies) yet still adamantly disagree with reparations of any kind. But you should not use this tactic with your loyal readers. No one likes being played.
I’ll support it too then. 🙂
You left out black tribes who sold captured rival tribe members to the slavers.
Oh good grief. No one other than you was traumatized by that article. “He’s a bad man. He played a trick on me. Safe space... Whahhh...’
I must admit the headline did cause me to click and read the article.
Interesting.
But here’s the sort of quote that makes me want to say “GFY” to ‘the other side’ —
[this comes from a Fox News article I happen to read this AM]
“When we Black Americans see this flag we know the person flying it is not safe to be around,” a July 4 Facebook post from Utah’s BLM chapter reads. “When we see this flag we know the person flying it is a racist. When we see this flag we know that the person flying it lives in a different America than we do. When we see this flag, we question your intelligence. We know to avoid you. It is a symbol of hatred.”

If THIS is the “we” that would get anything from other than private donors, then yeah, go f*ck yourselves.
Who owes American blacks reparations:
Democrats (wanted slavery, fought to keep slavery, were KKK);
Britts (bought slaves from muslims, sold slaves to America);
Muslims (captured Africans, sold them as slaves to others);
African black tribes who sold captured rival tribe members to the slavers.
And where did all that money go?
Not to the poor.
That money went to the race baiters and hustlers, to the unions and democrat politicians.
That stolen money is what Root’s talking about.
Exactly. Read what the Congo Kingdom and Senegal did back in the day with the European and Islamic slave traders. Sao Tome and Goree (sp?) are islands off the west coast of Africa with a dark history.
MOST African slaves went to South America and the Caribbean. But the current fake history is all about US slaves
I’ve been saying this for a couple years now. Democrat party needs to be canceled too for their past sins of slavery. Make them pay reparations them make them disban.
With today's reporters, when Trump told them the truth they gave HIM hell.
