Yes, I said it and I mean it wholeheartedly. Every Black History month Blacks sing "We Shall Overcome" but if the Black community in America continues to accept and foolishly advocate for a slave mentality, that is what they shall get. The progressive socialist left, aka the Democrat party, has been highly successful in perpetuating a victim mentality for the black community. And in many ways, it has been the policies of the white socialist elitists of the left that have decimated and destroyed the black community.

Over the centuries, it has been the Democrats who have brought forth the policies of secession, slavery, segregation, and socialism...the dreaded 4S's of the leftist apocalypse. In every way, these ideologies have proven detrimental to the existence of the black community. It is very comical to me to hear Democrats talk about Jim Crow when that is the policy they created and implemented, along with poll taxes, literacy tests, and lynchings. It was the Senate Democrats who have the record for the longest filibuster in US Senate history, against the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which passed thanks to Senate Republicans led by Everett Dirksen.

The so-called Great Society programs of widely known racist Democrat president Lyndon Johnson proved not so great. It led to the destruction of the traditional nuclear black family and turned American inner city communities into new economic plantations. Today, the black community is plagued with high unemployment, rampant fatherlessness, the genocidal murdering of our unborn babies, substandard schools, and lagging small business entrepreneurship. The new civil rights issue of this current age is school choice, but leftists, led by the Randi Weingarten teacher's unions stand against it.

The Ottoman Empire enslaved several million Europeans, far surpassing the transatlantic trade in Black slaves.

"Christian Slavery under Islam"

When will Christians receive "reparations" from Islam?

If reparations are ever enacted it will set race relations back to the level it was prior to the civil rights movement of the 60’s. I have empathy for what blacks went through in this country and think they are still psychologically damaged today because of that history, but this is definitely not the way to set things straight. It will do nothing but breed resentment against black people (and not just from whites), and further fractionalize this country racially.
