A group of African American academics is pushing for a UN 'reparations tribunal' to make Washington pay multimillion dollar sums to black citizens for slavery-era abuses, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Justin Hansford, a professor at Howard University School of Law, led the charge for $5 million payouts to black Americans at the UN this week, flanked by colleagues from the University of Pittsburgh and Columbia University.

Why not give them the Aleutian Islands? They can set up New Wakanda.

Roger Moore was extremely gay!
Sort of the British Rock Hudson. He had all these “manly man testosterone laden” roles, the reality was something different.

indentured servants/slaves,
—
Indentured servants were not slaves.
It was a business deal. Usually it would involve someone paying for the passage of an individual to the new world that would be paid back in exchange for so many years of labor.
I would bet your two ancestors were very happy with the deal especially when they were able to achieve so much here that they never would have been able to achieve in the old country.

How about this? We stop sending money to the UN, we tell them to find a new HQ and let them pay for reparations.
To: artichokegrower
How about they get reparations from the people who first sold them? That would be Africans.

Thousands of blacks were slave owners. More than 3,000 in New Orleans alone. Many blacks owned plantations and enslaved their fellow blacks. Preaching to the choir, LJ. I've been pointing this out for years.

"Reparations" for the perpetually offended is no more inane than providing a modern-day version of "40 acres and a mule" ...
... that is, "40-ouncers and a [drug] mule".

Understand that...
However, in “today’s” environment, they would be considered slaves...

Can you imagine what the cost of everything is going to be with trillions injected into the economy?
So, we give 13% of our population—43 million people—each $5 million. What do these people think race relations are going to look like after that?
Does the government stop all race based programs in government?
The cost of housing will soar. The cost of everything would soar. And the tax burden on the non minority folks is going to be staggering.
Yeah, no one would have hurt feelings over THAT!
To: TangoLimaSierra
And how will they figure who is eligible?
It would be ironic if they came up with a ratio of 5/7ths slave blood to get money.
