> Last week, Senator Kamala Harris of California agreed with a radio host’s recent suggestion that government reparations for black Americans were necessary to address the legacies of slavery and discrimination. Ms. Harris later affirmed that support in a statement to The Times.
> Ms. Warren also said she supported reparations for black Americans impacted by slavery — a policy that experts say could cost several trillion dollars, and one that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and many top Democrats have not supported.
> In this essay La Griffe du Lion models the effect of affirmative action on the income of whites, blacks and Hispanics. It is shown that on average a black worker between the ages of 25 and 64 earns an extra $9,400 a year because of affirmative action. Hispanics also benefit to the tune of almost $4,000 a year. However, being a zero-sum game, white workers pay an average of about $1,900 annually to foot the bill.

no, not much could have changed that nation it was basically a 3 way civil war where everyone lost in the end because they were all destroying themselves and the americans backed ones were probably the best organized but the first to fall

Shouldn't native Europeans be paying the reparations? White people did immigrate from there? What about the reparations the Jews owe Christians for killing Jesus and the time Moses killed the Egyptians in the red sea? We need to solve these issues in the same order as the happening.

But the fact that they would commit to lip servicing these toxic agendas that has been proven to be campaign poison for any non-black demographic shows that they have completely jumped the shark and have no traction on regaining their lost voterbases. There's a reason even Obongo didn't support it.
My great great grandparents died fighting to free the slaves. They shed their blood to protect blacks and rescue them from the illegitimate Confederate government at the behest of the United States of America.
When do I get repaid for what my people suffered?

I will not pay for that. And I will not allow any other white man to pay it. Full. Fucking. Stop.

They have received than enough from welfare alone.
Nicholas Moore
Kind of morbidly curious what the total amount spent on welfare for blacks to date is now. Probably impossible to calculate if you also factor in all the indirect costs like policing, repossession, etc.

I'll pay you half of my reparations checks.

Uhhh, you're a fucking Slovenian. Why in the hell would you be paying it?
