Media reports state that Niger's President General Abdourahmane Tchiani has demanded compensation from France for over a century of colonial and neocolonial exploitation of Niger's natural resources.

“France has uncontrollably plundered our resources for more than a hundred years during the period of colonial and neocolonial rule,” the head of state said in an interview with the Nigerian state television channel RTN.

Why should the French be paying reparations to black people?

France should offer as compensation their claim against Italy for centuries of oppression under the Romans.

And the Italians should sue the countries that the Goths and Visigoths came from for sacking Rome.

Maybe they should've tried this before they kicked the French out last year.

You are on to something.

Similar to carbon credits, there could be victim credits that get exchanged and can be bought to offset status.
