America is a fckn shithole.

There's MOUNDS of evidence as to why Black Americans deserve reparations. It shouldn't even have to take all of this.

The only reason they paid the Asians is because they need to be on good terms with Asian countries for the sake of trade. Jews basically control everything so of course they got theirs. The Native gorls payout was America showing it's "good faith".

Black people hold no leverage to influence a payout. That's why it hasn't happened, and probably never will.

If the African continent became a global superpower all of this would change, but the countries around the world will never allow it.

I still need to know who exactly is getting paid if we do end up getting reparations cause I'm not here for the Dominicans and Puerto-Ricans who spent decades denying their blackness getting a piece of the pie owed to us

It'll be very hard because the people who got what was owed weren't descendants, but the very people suffering at that point in time.
How are they going to sift through 400 years?

The hearing was definitely informative. It's pretty long, but I hope everyone watches it for themselves. There's definitely a couple folks who shouldn't have been on that panel.

Oh there's info out there. Slavery was a business, and folks were pretty good at keeping records. I heard the Mormon church has some kind of database for slave auction records. There's also census records, as well as other ancestry tools.

Yeah slaves were noted by property taxes or head taxes. This whole country is made of shit

Still, the bill doesn't account for the reconstruction period after emancipation nor does it account for the near century of Jim Crow laws, which is why it needs to be amended. I'm sure most, if not all of us here have a parent or grand parent who experienced that, so that also counts.
