The UN Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent issued a report on Monday, stating that the United States owes Americans of African descent reparations for slavery and other incidents of mistreatment, up to the present day.
The group asserts that the reparations are due because of the disadvantages caused by 245 years of legalized slavery of black Africans in America, and that the United States has not confronted its legacy of “racial terrorism.”

Fine give em all a million dollars. Just warn me first so I can buy stocks in spinny rims and any over the top gaudy jewelry and weave.
It’s time for the American taxpayers to stand up and demand that these @$$holes at the so called UN be thrown out of OUR country and take their “expert” ASSHOLES with them. I’m sick of these commie pig maggots.
We can start charging the UN rent, make them pay interest on their interest free loan and make everyone associated with the UN who has broken the law pay their fines, serve their jail terms and pay reparations to THEIR victims.
If Mexico is going to pay for the wall, the UN can pay reparations.
Agreed. Congress can take the money budgeted for the UN and redirect that for "Reparations".
As soon as all the members square their U.N. dues..?
My ancestors are from the UK. Italy owes me reparations for the Roman invasion 20+ centuries ago. France too, for 1066!
How weak are you that you have to use your race as a crutch and a weapon at the same time? If you had not been lucky enough that one of your ancestors was sold into slavery by another one of your ancestors chances are your bloodline would have ended in some predator’s stomach or on the blade of another tribe’s machete. Even if that hadn’t happened you would most likely be doomed to the life of a Third World peasant, scraping and digging just to feed yourself and your family living in poverty you can’t begin to imagine, hoping that you didn’t draw the ire of your Third World Tinpot dictator or his corrupt government agents who could rape and murder you with impunity.
Instead of protesting you should get down on your knees and thank God you ended up in the United States, no matter what the path.
>What do you mean “return to their homeland.” Blacks in the US are Americans. Don’t like the reparations talk, but also don’t like the “GO BACK TO AFRICA!” crap either.
Either blacks were given a gift to end up in America or America is an awful place that we need to give them payments for dragging them to and thus they should go back. Since people have different opinions on which America is real, I suggest the ones who believe proposition #2 leave. Keeping ungrateful people in your midst is a dumb idea.
Reparations? How about repatriation?
I say pay it and get it over with. Then as they sign for their check the also sign a release saying the gubmint will no longer enforce any civil rights laws, equal opportunity will vanish, and so on and so forth.
I guess the UN Working Group never heard of the Civil War.
No, the Democrat party does.
Was the US (British colony at the time) the only country to have slaves from Africa?
I know, right? I'm part English and part Irish, so I'm writing myself a check.
