Excuse me?
Return them all immediately and repatriate them
And what are the numbers? 350K to 500K taken to what's today the U.S.? How is that close to the 5 million taken to Latin America? Or the 10-12 million taken to Asia? Or the unknown number of black slaves that stayed in Africa?
And that's just the black slaves. It's not like there weren't slaves from other parts of the world.
Ah yes, white papers about how whitey needs to pay up. I often wonder how low our standard of living will go.
Send it to Brazil.
After they collect money from the arabs that traded them, and after I get my reparations from the romans and vikings that enslaved my ancestors, then we’ll talk
Sorry but the West is bankrupt - there will be no reparations.
I’m fine if those who sold people into slavery are held financially accountable for doing so.
So, how do we identify the Africans who gathered up their neighbors and sold them?
Without the enthusiastic participation of Black African slave catchers and Black African slave transporters, the African slave trade would not have existed.
The Brown skinned North African pirates enslaved white Europeans for at least 2,000 years, and they enslaved white Americans for about two centuries.
I can imagine the following scam:
All reparations shall be paid to the United Nations, who will then do the investigation as to who is entitled to be paid, as fee for this service will be paid to the United Nations.
It is expected to take a long, long time to investigate and the money will be all gone, used to pay for the investigation.
If you’ve not seen this, watch it. (Well, LISTEN to it). Thomas Sowell on the history of slavery:

They got elecricity, television, cars, computers, the wheel, air conditioning, cement, airplanes, radio, modern medicine, hospitals, sanitation, vaccines, chemo, cell phones, modern agriculture, etc. out of the deal. I’d call it a wash.
Or they could go after their tribesmen who captured and sold their ancestors into slavery.
Any wonder why England preferred to import labor from India rather than hire locals to do the work of building railroads in Africa?
