Of course but we have to reach a point of realism

Haiti paid France for their freedom after the revolution. The payments lasted from 1825 to 1947. 122 years. And it crippled them.
The UK paid it's slave holders after outlawing slavery in 1833. They borrowed money to fund the policy and didn't finish paying it off until 2015. 182 years.
Imagine the time it would take to repay 14.7 trillion dollars going the opposite direction...US might not even exist as a country that long.
God speed.
I don't see it happening. There has to be a more realistic way.

This is big talk right here, black Americans really need to push this forward. Don’t worry about if the government will take a long time to pay this out because it won’t be long. They print money everyday for BS, this ain’t nothing to the US pay out, we ain’t the worlds power for nothing.
they also need to add tax benefits for black Americans and land grants that the government own. We coming for it all for our ancestors, add Jim Crow to the crime of this country too

I don't think it should be based on income. They need to pay people what they are due.

Political agitation is the way. I feel like we’ve ingrained it into the heads of a certain so sect of politicians. I may not see it but I’ll be damned if my grandkids don’t

I have twin girls, both college grads. If their mother and I were not college grads as well? Oh man.....we fought for them, as well as their grand parents, all the way through college graduation, when we fought for two more tickets!

all jokes aside, u have too many responsibilities in your hands to be setting up a fight w/ some racist on niketalk, & u even considering sacrificing a vacation day to do so is even more stupid. Doing all that for someone as selfish & untrustworthy as him just makes you the bigger bozo. Some things aren't worth entertaining. Just stop it.

Similar to the stimulus check, the more money you make, the less they have to dish out to you. That is ridiculous. The same way that they've shelled out money to the Jews without any questions or stipulations, they should shell out even more money to black people.

Haters on twitter are going in on Lebron because of his comments 2 years ago about Hong Kong, they are trying to downplay his involvement with BLACK people because of it.
Black people just remember we have no friends, and please try your best to stay out of other people’s business.
