every year we don't get reparations makes it harder to trace the descendants owed (or easier to make up excuses about it)...this is money was earned only about 3 generations ago (ppl ignore that slavery was only like 150 years ago, not to mention reconstruction/jim crow that came after)
the descendants of the post civil war freedman that were promised 40 acres and a mule should get the land or its dollar equivalent...its not like the US doesn't have the money
This.
You know what I find funny about the anti-reparations crowd? They would support the invasion and occupation of Haiti if the descendants of Toussaint Louverture had decided to stop paying France because "they weren't the ones who kicked the French off the island"
