Why stop there? How about reparations for native americans. How about for the ancestors of indentured servants? If you go back far enough, I bet almost EVERYONE has slave ancestors.
If we are going to start paying reparations for perceived wrong doing shouldn't Native Americans be first in the line?????
let’s be real, Steyer hates black people with every bone in his white body. He should promise a hand up not a hand out. Secondly black people should be happy Steyer has no chance because he is the worst thing that could happen to the black community. bernie Sanders gave equality to the blacks when he marched with mlk
Yay reparations. I am so white that when I step outside I might blind you from the suns reflection. However, taking my cue from the democrats I hereby announce that I identify as a DIRECT DECENDANT of a slave. How dare, I repeat, how dare anyone question me on this. Please auto deposit my reparation check in my savings account. Thank you.
If White males were arrested and convicted at the same rate as Black males the prisons wouldn't hold them all. But, we know they aren't. There. Fixed it for you.
I wonder if that's because African-Americans are the only racial group to be held in legalized slavery?
Native Americans have been receiving reparations for many years. They are provided with free housing if they choose to live on the reservation, free medical care from the cradle to the grave, free college educations. In addition they receive monthly benefit checks, I believe. There is even a government agency that does nothing but look after Native Americans: Bureau of Indian Affairs.
"Bernie Sanders gave equality to the Blacks when he marched with MLK" Really? I never knew Bernie had that kind of power! If that's true maybe Bernie should be handling the reparations program.
No you didn’t. You asked me a question. You know how I know that? The question mark at the end of your sentence is how I know that. Carry on.
None of that affected your life. I get it you like him. But what do you miss about him that made your life better?
They don't commit crimes at the same rate why should they be arrested at the same rate? But if they did our society would be falling apart into a third world country like where blacks are the majority. And no fixing needed concentrate on your own post, snarkiness does add credibility.
Almost every racial group has been held in slavery and some point in their existence. And whites were brought here in legal servitude.
No they don't get those free things. And there are plenty of agencies looking after African-Americans.
