Let's see: Divide the numerator by the denominator, carry the zeroes, round it off to the nearest dollar amount, and it all adds up to this:
Nothing. Zippo. Zilch. Nada. Bupkis: Absolutely nothing; nothing of value, significance, or substance. Wanna know why?
I'll tell you why:
My Great Great Grandfather's name was Jeremiah P******. He was a farmer and lived in Hempstead County Arkansas. He was conscripted into the Confederate army toward the end of the Civil War, but he and several others deserted. He another guy were caught and were going to be hung, but my Great-Great Grandfather escaped, and hid out in the Little Missouri River bottoms. The other guy wasn't so lucky.
After the war was over, he became the County Treasurer. I don't know if it was before the Civil War or after, he got some black girl pregnant. He sent the girl and her kid up North to go to school.
True family story. So reparations? Shove them up you collective asses. I owe you nothing, nor do any of my ancestors. GFY.
