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.

Must be why millennial are so stupid. They really are stupid.
... their suffering.
****************************
While there were some cruel slave owners, most owners considered their slave to be valuable assets who worked their tobacco and cotton fields. They provided food, clothing and shelter for them and permitted them to live as families and have children. .....The movies and books tend to make them all look like people who were always beating their slaves.
Its not as much stupid as been having been taught garbage and being kept ignorant by govt schools.
Should read: “Millennials are more open to idea of slavery”.
Because that’s what they’re asking for.
DNC must pay.
The Confederacy was made up of Dems.
Thanks to LBJ they have been getting reparations for 50 years.
Millennials are quite the bunch. They favor permitting people to choose their sex among over 50 possibilities. Well I’m okay with reparations too . . . if you can choose to be a sex you clearly are not, then you can choose among many races to identify as too. For the free gibsmedat cheese, I’m a black woman. Show me the money!
all that I mention DID actually happen , much of it to my own family ancesters and their property . The Yankees in the South were like the Nazis in the Ukraine . Reparations my @ss.... Never !
Good piece, and certainly one that will never see the inside of an American history textbook.
Thanks!
As I recall, the African slave trade was driven by the inability of Irish slaves in the British colonies and Indian slaves in the Spanish & Brazilian colonies to work in the extreme heat; they dropped like flies.
Of course not - those that think it's fine are under the impression it is the government's money paying for it - as it pays their useless ways....
And, they should have to pay reparations to the Republicans for attacking them during the Civil Rights movement.
So where's mine?
We shoulda picked our own cotton.
