The Africans should paying reparations to themselves. They were the ones, who after all, sold their own people for profit into slavery! Pot meet kettle.

There were many times more Arab and Turk owned white slaves than there ever were black slaves. Unfortunately they were never freed and their desecendents never afforded reparations.
WTH....might as well unload. Slavery still exists but I don't see the descendents of former slaves denouncing the practice in the Middle East, Africa, Asia and South America. Instead they want money.
According to the 1860 U.S. census, fewer than 385,000 individuals (i.e. 1.4% of White Americans in the country, or 4.8% of southern whites) owned one or more slaves. 95% of blacks lived in the South, comprising one third of the population there as opposed to 1% of the population of the North
