The idea of reparations to blacks is absurd. It's extortion and pure political bs.
How far do we go back? Egypt and the Jews? Farther? Not so far? Human history is a history of slavery. A terrible stain on our evolution. We learn from it, we never go back but to pay one group cash is...well...silly, Marianne.

Did you, with a straight face, equate the civil war to the fucking holocaust?
"Progressive theology is built on a mythic hierarchy of group victimhood which has endured throughout time, up until the present day; the injuries that the victims have suffered are so massive, so shocking, and so manifestly unjust that they dwarf the present. Such injuries must be remedied immediately, at nearly any cost. The people who do the work of remedying these injustices, by whatever means, are the heroes of history. Conversely, the sins of the chief oppressors of history, white men, are so dark that nothing short of abject humiliation and capitulation can begin to approach justice." tabletmag.com/sections/arts-…
African-Americans have had nearly 60 years of reparations in the form of welfare, affirmative action, and other state and federal programs. If they want anything else, earn it like the rest of us have.
Yes And those that should be paying it is old money. They profited from it for over a century. Now it’s time to pay the piper.
@IndianCountry @GovernmentZA that $500 billion needs to come from NATO
Abolish the Electoral College which was designed by the Founders in order to appeal to the slave-holding states to join the union. Also pass voting rights legislation. That would do a lot to bring more justice to Black Americans and all other Americans.

theshowerofhope.org/what-we-… For over ten years, our community of leaders and volunteers has been dedicated to connecting Los Angeles residents with people suffering from the homelessness crisis. Our efforts sustained and growing efforts have helped to serve Los Angeles better. Since we started bringing people together, preparing meals, and serving the homeless population in Skid Row in 200, we have believed that there is an urgency to bring back dignity to our community. By acknowledging and supporting the people who are suffering from the homeless crisis and the residents who can be part of the solution by exercising compassion and solidarity. Since then, we delivered over 500,000 meals by being present in Skid Row, with 20,000 volunteers who provided more than 75,000 hours.
