Joy is a racist grifter.
As a white man I want reparations for all the crime costs and unconstitutional welfare blacks have caused me.
BDS - Black Derangement Syndrome
i’ve got scars from working in the fields, from working restaurants, and from doing construction... never saw any blacks or hispanics in any of those jobs back then.
all white folks.
while other races might have worked here, the overwhelming majority of the people who built, fought, and died for this country were WHITE MEN.
just a fact.
these people need to be set straight before their bs is sold as truth.
My great grandfather came from Germany. He was a master mason and worked on buildings in NYC during the late 1880s.
He was not black.
My spouses father was on of the redneck miners n the 1920s. The family had always been miners.
They were not black and there were few black miners.
Joy, it was the Irish working westward and the Chinese working Eastward who built the transcon railroad.
The interstate highway system? Whyte dudes. The oil fields? Whyte dudes.
Says the millionaire.
So the canals and railroads across the Midwest created themselves? Remember those states developed from the Northwest Territory which entered the Union with slavery prohibited.
I like cheese.
Gnes are reparations
If Joy Reid was right and she’s NOT right - why the hell didn’t black people ‘build’ Africa? Africa’s one of the poorest places on earth, it’s not free, it’s corrupt and looks like an inner city hellhole.
What’s up Joy Reid?
Why didn’t black people ‘work their magic’ in Africa?
What white people can you blame for that mess?
The ignorance is strong with Joy.
Joy, black people were an integral part of the slave trade. In fact, they were the most critical part of the slave trade. African blacks produced the product - the slaves. They fought and enslaved other blacks and sold them to the arabs. Go demand reparations from the African blacks!
Joy, Joy, Joy. Obama is half white!!!! Black people got screwed again!!!
They had a hand in it. So did every other racial and ethnic group.
Should reparations first come from the blacks who captures blacks and sold them?
All the white trappers and westbound pioneers who cut down trees and built log cabins were actually enslaved?
The English, Swedish and Dutch who settled New England through Pennsylvania, with many colonial towns and churches still bearing their names—they didn’t build that?
All the Quakers and Shakers who settled New England through Ohio and built wooden homes and meeting houses—black?
The Anabaptists (Amish and Mennonite) who settled all over the eastern half of the US, especially Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky—all black?
The Scots-Irish who settled the multi-state Appalachian region with wooden and stone dwellings, actually black?
Hispanic and native Americans out west who made bricks of adobe to build houses—they, too, were actually black?
The Germans and Scandanavians who settled much of the upper half of the country, especially from the Mississipi through Pacific coast, farming and making woolens, preserved meats and cheeses—don’t tell me—they were really black?
