In a movement reminiscent of the affirmative action debates in the 1970’s, there exists today demands that white Americans pay reparations to African-Americans for centuries of black slavery as well as oppression that persisted even after slavery was abolished in American 150 years ago.
One difference between the two is that while affirmative action required that business and educational institutions take specific actions to to expand the pool of minorities applying for jobs and offer them preferential treatment in the hiring process, the reparations movement would demand that white Americans set aside a portion of their money to be used as direct payment to minorities as compensation for alleged damages they have suffered because of their race.
One African-American professor has gone so far as to place a value of $40 trillion on the sum allegedly due blacks as a result of the oppression he claims they have suffered. In another case, a Congressman has introduced legislation to mandate reparations for slavery.
It’s a radical idea as explored on page two.
No
This professor is mental.
You need to choke to death on your own tongue
Dyson, blow it out your fucking$#%&!@* No white today owes you people anything.
Just as soon as all the slaves repay their owners for all the food and lodging they received.
I want my reparation money for all of us white males.
Ignore this stupidity.
Why do they not ask for money from the African slave traders that sold their ancestors! Why do they not ask for money from the Muslims that sold their people and continue to do so until this very day ! Their were White slaves as well. But I guess that’s ok because they were white !
hahahahahahahaha
