On Reparations: “We need to get real. This is not a debt we can afford to delay any longer. It is simply a debt we owe. Racism is a character defect. Let’s solve this. Whatever it costs, it is time to do this.“ #williamsontownhall #Marianne2020

not just racism. It IS a systematic disabling of a race. Gerrymandering (state/federal) segregated communities. Legally people of color could be murdered with "I was scared" excuse. Generations snuffed out. My ggf had to carry gun @ 10 to stay alive bc KKK. Where's understanding?

We'll make it right once this technology is perfected. The good news is slavery will have never happened. The bad news...

Where’s the money coming from?
Replying to @marwilliamson
IF you're supposed to do reparations. 1. Who should pay it, and why? Everyone? Or only the ones in the South who were slave owners? Or the families who were slave owners? 2. Which black people were a part of those that were of the ORIGINAL slaves? (1/2)

You name any number you’d like. And I’ll say that number is dwarfed by the value of the 360,000 northern soldiers who gave their lives already to end it.
