So, if my last name was carried on by slaves; do I get reperations? I’d assume most kept their last name given to them. They’re receiving money off my bloodline. I didn’t do shite 200+ years ago.

ETA: it’s 50/50 with my last name.

Someone downvoted this. Sad.

Will they factor in the decades of affirmative action, quotas, receiving of other money, donations, scholarships, & benefits including lower standards/expectations and equitable solutions for being black over the years, for failing to help maintain areas and schools as they moved in that forced white people to have to move from their homes, out of proportion generational welfare abuse, and out of proportion crime including an extremely out of proportion violent crime rate?

I feel like if they did the amount would be like when USFL sued the NFL and won $1 in damages.

As of now, they have not finalized how much the compensation will be -- but they've hired 5 economists to help sort that out by next summer.

The fact that reparations have any political traction anywhere in America is telling and dusturbing. Other than the beneficiaries of the windfall, why would any other individual endorse the supposed reasoning above? Have they been duped?

It's a long read, but with a name like yours, you should be up for it. This suicidal chaotic impetus from the left is old and has had many names. The moniker changes, it's adherents imagine themselves to be unique, but there is truly nothing new under the sun. The real question is not "why would anyone do this?" but rather "how could you even begin to effectively stop the underlying force?"

California needs to pay reparations to the rest of the ountry for the damage their policies have caused - see CARB.

What about if you’re a white descendent of pre-1890 slaves?

I’m all for reparations. Let’s dig up every dead slave owner and tell them they have to pay every dead slave then be done with it.

Those virtue signaling tech billionaires can pay all the reparations they want in California, my poor arse in SE Louisiana will never willingly pay a dime. I’m not sorry and I feel zero shame about something I had nothing to do with.

Just to clarify, if the resident liberals haven't chimed in yet; yes reparations have been paid before. Paid to Living direct descendents of japanese internment victims


Not distantly related lazy people.

Someone named Kamilah deemed it appropriate for reparations to be paid.

I’m shocked, SHOCKED, I tell you!

In the 1800’s there were more Asian and Latino slaves in California.

We should start making things right by paying all Latino and Asian families reparations in California first.
