Germany paid $89B to Jewish organizations since the Holocaust. We should have similar plan of reparations for slavery. Until then we wont have made a fundamental economic amends. Not enough to stop kicking someone to the ground; you also owe it to them to help them get back up.

We don’t have healthcare, affordable housing, minimum living wage, school equality because of indifference & control of big $ so how on earth could these people begin 2 b enlightened enough acknowledge a wrong like that.

That’s totally different from slavery. Tired of hearing we owe blacks. They never endured that treatment. Yes we still need to face the obstacles that blacks endure, but when are we going to take responsibility for own actions?

And let’s have similar reparations for the American Indian as well. A genocide this nation does not acknowledge or atone for.

I can get on board with giving Indian Reservations money. I can’t get behind something like giving handouts to people that never endure slavery. People dislike other people that’s life.

President Lincoln set up "Freedom Bureau Act" 40 acres/mule for compensation for un-paid work to slaves in U.S a few received their share and the property/mules went back to white slave owners. The bureau was dismantled after one year - when KKK murdered President Lincoln!
