The history of slavery in the United States justifies reparations for African Americans, argues a recent report by a U.N.-affiliated group based in Geneva.
This conclusion was part of a study by the United Nations' Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent, a body that reports to the international organization's High Commissioner on Human Rights. The group of experts, which includes leading human rights lawyers from around the world, presented its findings to the United Nations Human Rights Council on Monday, pointing to the continuing link between present injustices and the dark chapters of American history.

Screw the UN.
I would like them to try to explain, with a straight face, how people who were not guilty of holding any slaves, somehow owe people who never were slaves, reparations.
I’d like them to further explain how my children, born more than 40 years after the Civil Rights Act was passed in this country and at a time shortly before we elected a half-black president, could possibly owe any reparations for acts committed by people whom they are not even descended from. Because, you see, my ancestors and my wife’s were, at the time slavery existed in this country and well into the Jim Crow era, being rather severely oppressed by the Czar of all the Russias. Neither my children, nor my wife and I, nor anyone in any branch of my family who lives or has ever lived in this country is or was guilty of one single instance of slavery or unlawful discrimination against any other person.
Oh, and by the way, if the United Nations thinks that it can explain these things and somehow be justified in this manifestly unjust claim, I’d like the fascist tyrants inhabiting it to understand that they will have to have a rather unpleasant conversation with several pieces of tubular steel that I own.
Go get your reparations from those mussies that sold you into slavery in the first place.
Actually in most cases slavery though second to only maybe death IMO saved lives.
It was not a good thing, but those people and all their ancestors were all dead before slavery.
Tribal warfare was a constant and selling the losers saved the losers from instant death.
Yes slavery by Democrats and not one Republican was brutal and just about as bad as death, but almost none of our black populations would have gotten to exist without slavery because they all would have had their ancestors slaughtered in battle.
Also, since blacks claim in their minds that they were the great Egyptians that were in charge of the pyramids and such, then they need to give back much of the Middle East and black people also need to pay reparations to blacks for the murders, rapes and slavery.
Years ago Trump asked then President Bush to give him the UN and he would turn it into a luxury condominium that would actually MAKE MONEY for NY. I am going to try to find that story. It had to be in the 1980’s.
TO ISRAEL!!!!
Rome better get ready because the entire continent of Europe and other areas were slaves to the Romans. Add the Vatican to the list too.
$20 Trillion in War on poverty and social programs over 50 years just isn’t enough!
Terms: every black in the US renounces citizenship and returns to Africa. Exceptions can be made for Colonel West, Walter Williams, and maybe 5% of the rest of the black population, but all you hood-rats, BLMers, rappers, and baby mommas, pack your frikkin' bags.
... Go ahead and give reparations the $$ will flow so fast from their hands it will be like they never had it.
... It could turn out to be the most effective rebate/stimulus we’ve ever had, given the multiplier effect 7 X 1 dollar — and trickle up.

If we needed one more reason to throw the UN out of our world ...
this is the precise reason our forefathers instituted the 2nd amemdment; so that if our federal slavemasters who have sold us into debt slavery to the rest of the world, fail to protect us from enemies like the UN who try to FURTHER enslave us to details of the distant past, we can defend ourselves .
fact of the matter is: black people OWE themselves to stop terrorizing white people for their own faults ,
furthermore Black people owe white people for freeing them from slavery and the hellhole of Africa, many died in a great civil war that resulted in their freedom, they owe us
They never mention slavery in South America, where the slave life span averaged 10 years.
Uh, WRONG! Seems like somebody owes white folks back travel expenses after having been rescued from the dark continent. And room and board for once they got here. Hey, two can play that crap.
So -— do the hutus owe the tutsis? Do the N. Koreans owe their citizens? Do the Russians owe their purge victims’ descendants, the chicoms?? Do the arabs owe Africans for their slave trading? UN???? UN????? YOU IIINNNNN????
Would reparations also include a 1 way ticket to the country their ancestors were from and giving up citizenship and any future claims in the US and never return ?
I’d be very happy to donate $1 if they’d all either sign a quit claim and leave us alone forevermore or all move to Africa.
Do Clinton and Obama owe reparations for the slaves
taken by their ISIS (spin off of al Qaeda that they armed)?
