Millennials are more open to idea of slavery reparations: Study shows majority of young people think African Americans should be compensated for ancestors' suffering
**SNIP**
Baby boomers between ages 51-69 are similar, with a 79-17 per cent margin against reparations.
The numbers start changing when it comes to Generation Xers, with Americans between the ages of 35-50 breaking 73 per cent to 25 per cent against reparations.
The biggest shift comes with millennials, with a majority — 51 per cent — saying that reparations should be paid or they were unsure of whether reparations should be paid.

That’s because they are brainwashed govt school morons.
Clueless little pukes.
As long as somebody else pays it.
After all, THEY never owned any slaves.
It’s those OTHER people.
Sure, “the government” should pay for reparations, too, in addition to unlimited college years and a basic income. And corporations should pay for a minimum living wage.
You’re right: they weren’t asked the key question of whether they would be willing to pay, and they are too economically illiterate to discern a connection between these payments and their own well-being.
They can afford to be generous when it isn’t on their dime...
Morons!
Everyone is for free stuff...until they learn that they have to work to pay for it.
Is it possible, after all this time, to track down the tribes in Africa that kidnapped and sold those people into slavery?? They are the ones responsible.
I never owned any bloody slaves.
Not only that, my Sicilian ancestors were enslaved and brutalized by the Muslim occupiers for three centuries.
Do I get reparations from the bloody mohammenan savages?
Younger people always almost more open-minded to inane policy proposals.
Doesn’t mean they don’t tend to change their minds as they get older. Especially when they start having careers, families, and property of their own.
I imagine the results would be quite different if they asked if “they” were willing to pay for it...
Any case to be made for reparations died when the last former slave died.
Get DNA test and census forms together.
A lot of old time American whites have some black ancestors.
I’m going to take my 1/32 or 1/64 or whatever.
Just add 50% to their student loan balance to pay it.

They weren’t “tribes” in the common sense of the word.
They were the mohammedan savages, the same savages that run the African slave trade to this very day. The same savages that started the global slave trade in Africans.
The “reparations” we have paid is in the TRILLIONS!!!No MORE!!
We have been paying reparations for 50 years. They know it, we know it, but Africans are liars and race pimps and that won’t ever change.
Good. When those idiots grow up, get jobs and start paying taxes, I’m all for THEM paying “reparations”. Until then, tough Schmitz.
