The US government should consider paying reparations to the African-American descendants of slaves, a United Nation working group says.

The UN Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent has released its preliminary recommendations after more than a week of meetings with black Americans from across the country.

The group also recommended establishing a national human rights commission and publicly acknowledge the trans-Atlantic slave trade was a crime against humanity.

Chairwoman Professor Mireille Fanon-Mendes France said the committee were "extremely concerned about the human rights situation of African-Americans".

She said: "The colonial history, the legacy of enslavement, racial subordination and segregation, racial terrorism and racial inequality in the U.S. remains a serious challenge as there has been no real commitment to reparations and to truth and reconciliation for people of African descent."

She compared the recent deaths of unarmed black men like Michael Brown and Eric Garner at the hands of white police officers to the racist lynchings of black men in the South from the post-Civil War era through to the latter half of the 20th century.

The US government has never issued an official apology for slavery.

In 2008, the House of Representatives unanimously voted to apologise for both slavery and the Jim Crow laws which followed.

The following year the Senate passed its own bill to apologise for the injustice but neither reached President Obama?s desk as both houses could not agree on the correct wording to stop them becoming liable for future repatriations.

I hate to say it but reparations would be the death of so many black people. With the rapid drug use and crime within the city people would die faster from cockiness and over indulgence. Not to mention we would give most of the money to asians (hair care, cheap food) the arabs (liquor stores, fake hair) and whites (designer clothes, cars).

Give mofos college reimbursements and housing vouchers w/ land they can own. Small business grants would be good too. Drug addicts shouldn't qualify.

I think the reparations should be given to the old colonies that have been left to rot
