so giving my money to a bunch of black people is going to be spent better than if I just spend it as I see fit?
I instead of reparations how about repatriation.
So, if my white ancestor died fighting slavery, I would have to pay reparations to someone who is the descendent of an African slave trader?
No reparations without repatriation.
Also, end to all welfare benefits.
Reparations deducted from same.

Civil Rights Act (1964)
TITLE VI—NONDISCRIMINATION IN FEDERALLY ASSISTED PROGRAMS
SEC. 601. No person in the United States shall,
on the ground of race, color, or national origin,
be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of,
or be subjected to discrimination
under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.

Yes.
…the word “reparation” is derived from a Latin word meaning to “restore” or “repair.” So if you want to get literal and borderline Aspergery about it, real reparations would consist of returning African Americans to roughly the state they’d be in if they’d never been plucked from their ancestral homelands. If ex-Africans have truly been damaged by being transported to America and increasing their numbers a hundredfold in the process, it would stand to reason that they’d currently be doing better in Africa.
A Reparations Plan That Makes Sense
And while wer'e at it, due to the fact Democrats historically have been the party of slavery and resisted civil rights, all registered Dem voters should be on the hook.
It really has nothing to do with slavery anymore. It’s a “White Privilege” tax now.

Imagine no, asswipe.
I finally get it: ANYTHING BUT JOBS!
BAM. Well put.
That’s the BBQ, Fried Chicken and watermelon lobby.
I will gladly personally pay reparations to every slave I have ever owned. Anyone and everyone else who thinks they are entitled to reparations from me - you can wish in one hand and {excrement} in the other. See which fills up first.
In less than eighty years after the Constitution established America the Constitution abolished slavery everywhere in America.
I’ve always wondered why black Americans don’t celebrate that accomplishment instead of spinning it into centuries of slavery.
I’m all for reparations for slavery. My ancestors were brutally repressed under the yoke of the Roman empire. I want my reparations from the Italians!
In the spirit of compromise, I’ll settle for a free house in Tuscany. Three bedrooms two bath with a view, please.
Of course, by the time your $10 gets handed over to government bureacracy and handed to "the other guy," it's only $5. Gotta pay living wages to the federal workers, unions, and overhead associated with "the system."
Those lazy southern assholes should have just picked their own cotton.
“We gave already. The Union lost 77 combat dead every day for four years straight without a day missed. We have given Blacks who were never slaves things they have used to gain positions they have no credentials for save for the color of their skin. Go away.”
Well said. Never looked at it that way before. Sadly, their ancestors traded in that blood-won FREEDOM for another kind of SLAVERY, and We The People are now SLAVES to the STATE to support THAT!
It’s a win/win. Not. Grrrrr!
