In Portland, Oregon, organizers of the “Reparations Happy Hour” invited black, brown and indigenous people to a bar and handed them $10 bills as they arrived, a small but symbolic gift mostly funded by white people who were asked not to attend.

My father’s father was going to change the family name. He was in construction and a major contractor in NYC and it didn’t really matter so thankfully it never happened. (He died in his early fifties from eating poorly as all good Italians tend to do so I never met him)

Line up the shots, play a drinking game, line up more shots, another round, set em up real good. Call the cops as they wander outside...

It was standard ops for particular azzes in military. U saw it all the time as an SP. Payback.

It’s been 55 years since the Civil Rights act went into effect so one would have to be over the age of 55 to even have been alive during segregation and they would have had to have be over 67 to have had any sort of awareness of segregation

There are about 7 million black Americans over the age of 55 and much less over the age of 67.

Within a decade, there will be a tiny handful of black Americans who can even remember life before the end of segregation

I’ll give them a free drink (of water or iced tea) if they’ll come and hoe my cotton patch.

Will be down the street at a different bar. Will be doing business contracts, reviewing resumes, networking with those in the trade. Blacks will be complaining that they are left out of the hiring, promotion, contracting process. Probably because they have isolated themselves.

Since these Black radicals also claim Ancient Egyptians were Black, can Jews show up and demand “reparation drinks” from THEM for the centuries of Hebrew slavery?

A former slaveowner should make good to a former slave

???

Do you realize that thousands of blacks were slave owners?Do you realize there were slaver breeders who sold their own children?

They are just pandering. The two most mistreated immigrants were the blacks and the Irish.

This is a presentation from the Library of Congress:

Why aren’t the Irish recognized? Or aren’t they good ink for the papers.

True story. A bartender friend told me an urban man sat at her bar and ordered a Hennessey and Yoohoo. She told him they didn’t have that, so he asked for a Courvoisier and Yoohoo instead.

ROTFLMAO!
