Black congresswoman says America better give Blacks reparations or else

[CowboyTed]

Reparations have already been paid by the blood of approximately 360,000 Union soldiers that died fighting the DEMOCRATS to free the slaves in the Civil War.

You're welcome.
Now STFU.

I don't think you know how reparations work...

Saying that, I would focus more on poverty in US...

13% of Americans live under the poverty line...
57% of American adults say they are living paycheck to paycheck

. When you were born into poverty, does it really matter was it Government or your Parents responsible... You are in it and you love a hand to get out of it...

 

[DonGlock26]

Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) argued many Black Americans will “tap out” and stop voting if they believe reparations will never be paid for slavery.

Lee made the claim during an appearance on the Native Land podcast on June 7. She said many of her fellow Democrats— and certainly Republican lawmakers — are backed by donors who do not want reparations to be paid, but she is not one of them.

Oh no!!

Why don't you mind your own ******* business.
You should worry about the UK being destroyed by their own twisted government. Maybe a Somolian can give you a neck adjustment for you to wake up.
REPARATIONS WERE PAID IN BLOOD.
PAID.
GTFOH

so we could have minority-majority districts where nobody votes? I am skeptical.

Y’all have received welfare for 80 plus years…you’ve been paid your reparations…./thread

I don't think her methods would work.

About reparations, it is abundicly clear that the Black Population in America through discrimination and Slavery are not economically at the same level of the General population.
It is not only slavery but stuff like housing discrimination, voting discrimination,... that has kept this group ostracised...

I would advise the black population not to make is a race thing, make it a poverty thing...Those people who want to keep you down like to pit poor white people against poor black people...

What you should look for is, merit based (grade related) free college for all courses in America, Living grant for kids from poor backgrounds...
Second, 30% of all private building (multi-resident) has to be sold to public housing or subsidised rate (e.g. 20% off)... This allows for a bigger mix of classes in neighbourhoods... This has extra benefits in social engineering...

Nonsense. My wife and I were poor early on, as many young couples are when they start out. We made it out of that. It’s a choice.

Obama had a similar idea. Poor (black) people would be dropped in nicer (whiter) suburbs.
This would improve the lives of blacks and ruin the white suburbs. Social engineering.
Of course, it wouldn't happen where he and his rich friends live.

I think they couch it as reparation for Slavery, but in reality they mean reparations from Racism. Since you cant be black in America and not experience racism, probably handed down and formed in society FROM the days of slavery, then all Black Americans SHOULD recieve reparation regardless of blood line.
I think that is probably the true take.

I have thought about an idea though, adn I guess its not practical for a couple reasons but what if Reparations were given only to black families who remain married and together ? it would discourage single mothers raising children because they get a certain amount of money for each one....It would incentivize black families to stay together and live a really good life. Would that not help society as a whole? maybe in the long run it would be cheaper than the cost of prisons, and the misery that exists in poor city neighborhoods.

Anyone can experience raicsm regardless of race.

Racism is strictly a belief or action based on beliefs from individual person and no one is responsible for the crimes of another person

But your idea is an interesting one

It is abundantly clear that is black culture and not any discrimination which holds back blacks in relation to the general population

I am Latvian. Should I demand Putin give me reparations for Stalin killing my family and seizing our farm?

Hep a brotha out, Home. He need his 40.

 

[Woodznutz]

For the most part, reparations will never be paid.

Bullseye!

 

[Hafar1014]

Reparations will never be paid. Consider we spent 27 trillion on welfare and other programs to help blacks and what good did it do? They are worse off.

Actually, most are better off. However, there is always a demographic within any race that is always behind.

73% have no father, 53% of all homicide, second poorest culture, mean IQ 85, highest rate of violence. So tell me how they are better. Before the welfare state blacks were making great strides in every aspect of life. Then it came to a screeching halt as a culture of dependency was created and men abandoned the family.

I have a reperations plan for her. Fill out the self deportation app, denounce your citizenship and when the plane lands in Africa you get $2000. And can never come back.

I see it less about slavery and more in terms of that discrimination. After WWII with the economies of Europe and Japan in shambles the U.S. was prosperous. It was a prosperity that for the most part was not fully available to Blacks due to education, labor, and home ownership restrictions.

As far as reparations go, I have no answers, other than observing that for the vast majority of us wealth comes from working hard, acting responsibly, and taking advantage of the opportunities available to us. Seems to me that those opportunities have become more widely available to all, although I do have concern for the health care and education for children of those economically disadvantage. That concern is regardless of race, religion, or other.

Blacks in America made great strides in the 50s until the welfare state stopped them dead in their tracks destroyed their families and created culture of dependence. Since then blacks got 27 trillion in support and they got worse

I know how we can fix this problem.
round up everyone who has already confessed to owing reparations and make them first publicly apologize and then figure out how they can atone for the heinous crime(s)they have confessed to...then we move on to those folks who have confessed to knowingly owning stolen property that belonged to native Americans...warning the guilty will try and confess for you as well...just ignore them
