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 $40 trillion on the sum allegedly due blacks as a result of the oppression he claims they have suffered. In another case, a Congressman has introduced legislation to mandate reparations for slavery.
It’s a radical idea as explored on page two.
I guess you dumb incestuous hicks don’t realize people of caucasoid Anglo Saxon decent are the biggest receivers of welfare.
Bull c**p you have already taken enough from the whites since the sixties
You are big part of the problem with whites and blacks. Many blacks now think they should be given everything because of slavery 100 years ago. You are not going to get nothing you don’t work for.
IT can’t be that stupid ! They desrve absolutely nothing…now or ever !
And blacks should quit gunning each other down daily but you know the the saying$#%&!@*in one hand..
DOES HE WANT TO INCLUDE ALL THE BLACKS THAT RAPED ,MURDERED, ROBBED ,TO GET HIS REPARATIONS ?
O I see I guess you don’t realize with you don’t realize with your tiny Caucasoid neo cortex that all through out your life you’ve benefited greatly from the legacy of colonialism, Jim crow, free land and slavern. I guess you think your uncle dad pulled his self up by his own bootstraps. I get it.
When will they grow up
You fucking ignorant incestuous cave beast I guess you don’t realize the only thing your people ever invented was the patent office, and your only contribution to humanity is colonialism. Wake up you’ve lied to only reason you’re so proud of yourself is because your leaders didn’t want you all to know you just crawled out the cave last millenea so they told you that you had something to do with world heritage but nothing could be further from truth..
