Reparations for slavery in the U.S. have been discussed contentiously, not only in the lead-up to this Monday’s Juneteenth holiday that commemorates the end of slavery in the country. A survey carried out by Pew Research Center in 2021 shows that two thirds in the U.S. reject the idea of slavery reparations.
The picture is different among Black Americans, of whom three quarters support reparations. Support is also higher among Hispanics – where almost 40 percent are in favor – and Asians – one third is for reparations – than among white Americans. Only 18 percent in the group supported them, the survey showed.

My German great grandparents were evicted from their home at age 85 in 1945 when the Russians moved into eastern Prussia. They escaped with their lives unlike many of the other 10 million forced back to Germany at the end of the war, so they were thankful for that. The family estate, homes, and factories were all confiscated.
I want reparations for that, too.
The descendants of the 700,000 dead in the Civil War want their reparations, too.

I demand reparations from Russia and Austria for confiscation of property and (especially in the case of the former) centuries of abuse of the Polish people (I could include Germany, by my ancestors were under Austrian rule with cousins deported by the Soviets/Russians who are one and the same Putin Puffers).
I think every White Democrat in the Bay area should give up their homes, savings and retirement plans to Black families. The sooner the better. Those White Democrat families can then move into the ghettos and live there.

the poll respondents all face a conflict of interest. One group stands to gain money. The other groups stand to lose money (taxation). Every group found for the option that was best for them financially.
Too often, at black schools, the students have two options. Sports and the black market.
