Your choice:
1) Hannibal the Mule
2) Free one-way ticket to Wakanda

Hurry. You have ten seconds to decide.

On a related note, racist LeVar Burton, the actor who played Geordi La Forge on 'Star Trek: Next Generation', found out he would owe reparations since he's descended from a white Confederate soldier.

My ancestor was a sergeant major in the Northern Army. If they can get reparations, I can get reparations.

many black voters are keen to get checks in the mail, only a fraction think they’ll see such a day in their lifetimes.

I’m calling BS on the following passage. It was, and is, popular among grifters who want to cash the checks, and left wing politicians who wanted to kiss their butts. The public was never behind this

Mike​​​​ Gonzalez, an analyst at the conservative Heritage Foundation, said support for reparations peaked amid the protests over the police killing of George Floyd in 2020.

Now, it is waning, he added.

‘Like diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), Critical Race Theory, anti-racism trainings, and other features of the collective hysteria, the call for reparations has begun to fall apart under intense opposition by the American people,’ he told DailyMail.com.

Corporations want reparations, because they’ll wind up with all the money in the end.

I support reparations for all living slave victims themselves.

That is all.

The community of people demanding the trillions of dollars does not have the character, discipline or understanding to do the right thing with that amount of money.

Imagine Levar Burton, the guy who played "Kunta Kinte" in Roots, finding out one of his ancestors was a Civil War soldier (this is not just a question, it's literally a fact proven by his DNA).

So, he's directly descended from someone who held slaves, but is black.

Should he pay himself reparations?
