If they picked cotton as poorly as they do everything else, they owe money

Whatever the amount they think they are owed, will never be enough for them. EVER! They will have their hand out for eternity. This issue will never go away for them. Can you imagine all the Chargers on the road and the increase in skid marks at every major intersection?

I want $300,000 for limited access to the sundown towns of the south.


There are places I am not allowed to go due tk the new-era Jim Crow laws for whites.

We aren’t allowed in parts of town. They say we are up tk no good if we are found there.
Our attacks aren’t covered by media.
We cannot use public transportation that our taxes pay for.

I heard a fascinating explanation from a black history prof. From memory it went like this:
"Europeans didn't only enslave Africans. They took the best workers which is why they built America and Africa suffered from their loss."
Response: 'So, why wasn't Africa more developed before slavery took them out?'
Prof: "It was very advanced before slavery. Europeans re-wrote history claiming they invented everything."

So, I guess we owe a lot of reparations. And we need to rewrite out history books. BTW, he said Jesus was black. We need to admit that as part of reparations.

Actual slaves should definitely be entitled to $300k from actual slave owners.

Can we move on now?

They owe us by now. Payback the welfare and penalty for crime.

Nothing more than what has already been paid in the form of all the free programs the government has stolen from taxpayers to fund.

late to the party, but, reparations have been paid since 1960. Overpaid.

Where is this money coming from?

Are all African Americans eligible for this money? What if you're bi-racial?

Does this include incarcerated individuals?

Does this count as taxable income?

Would this make individuals ineligible for government assistance?


So many question, just saying.

I think we’ve suffered enough. Paid more than enough in welfare, food stamps, housing etc.

Imagine if our forefathers would’ve picked their own cotton. Sorry not sorry. Fatigue is real

I think every union soldier who died in the civil war, thier descendants should receive $10,000 from every descendant of a slave.

Prove me wrong

I will fart in a jug and give it to anyone demanding reparations.

Even that is more than they deserve.

If Democrats could have picked their own cotton we could have avoided two civil wars.
