If reparations are paid to black Americans, they should come from the democrat party......obviously.

Correction-Africans did not buy Africans and ship them here.

Africans did not buy Africans......they raided each others villages and captured them...

 

[Billiejeens]

No, slavery was made legal in America. Africans did buy Africans then ship them here.. Whites had guns and used them to get captives. Blacks are owed reparations and segregation still continues covertly right now, so does white racism and the harm it causes. You are an example. So if the government can pay others for things that happened in the 1800's it can pay blacks and it will pay blacks.

We have transfered billions of dollars to you all and continually build housing for you to trash.
What do you have to show for it.
$250.00 tennis shoes and gold teef.

 

[IM2]

No......whites did not use guns and get captives....the captives came from the Africans who transported their prisoners to the coast...

Slavery as an excuse for current problems is stupid.........decades of voting for the democrat party and living in the cities the democrats control from top to bottom is the problem today........and it can change over night if black Americans simply stop supporting the party of racism and hate.....

Yes the did. They armed tribes that were favorable to them in return for captives. In some cases they started fights. Things didn't happen the way whites like you want to tell it.

And slavery is not the excuse for current problems. Continuing racist behavior by whites such as yourself is.

White right wingers don't seem to understand the reality that whites invented the race card, the race hustle, race baiting, and race pimping. They literally pimped blacks, that's what slavery was idiots. And as for your ignorance of history I am going to give you republicans a refresher on the history of blacks and the republican party....Again.

1. Blacks were Republicans for more than 100 years.

2.Republicans authored an amendment to officially make slavery a constitutionally protected activity. The Republican Party is the party of The Corwin Amendment that would have cemented slavery as a constitutional right.

3. A Republican president, with the support of the Republican Party, ended reconstruction. The Republican Party is the party of the 1877 Compromise that ended reconstruction and paved the way for Jim Crow.

4. Once blacks got a foothold in the Republican party and gained some semblance of political equality, white Republicans took steps to purge blacks from leadership positions. The Republican Party is the party of the Lilly White movement, a group of Republicans who worked to purge blacks from the party.

By 1964, there were blacks whose families had been Republicans since emancipation. They stayed faithful to a party that really did nothing for blacks after Lincoln signed the proclamation. While Republican, blacks endured Jim Crow Apartheid nationwide, redlining, restrictive covenants, acts of terror, white instigated racial violence, and the refusal to respect the constitutional rights of black people. Despite years of loyal black support, in 1964 Republicans nominated Barry Goldwater for president. His nomination was a slap in the face of black people. Goldwater voted against the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

We blacks know all of this. Either you right wing whites don't know, purposefully deny it, or think blacks are so stupid that you can tell us about how democrats supported slavery and we are all going to just run to the republican party because Lincoln signed the first EP. Meanwhile according to you....we as blacks are not to mention that past unless it glorifies whites, we never were slaves, and no one today owned a slave or never was a slave even as we are supposed to leave TODAYS DEMOCRATIC PARTY because they were pro slavery in the past. You bitches talk out of both sides of your mouths all day, every day.

In 1964 & 1965, a Democrat signed what amounted to our second and third Emancipation Proclamations when President Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil and Voting Rights Acts. So if we are supposed to be republicans because Lincoln signed the first EP, then we are certainly supposed the be democrats because a democrat signed what gave us the freedom republicans did not.

We are building affordable housing ALL OF THE FUCKING TIME to put your worthless asses in only to have you trash them.

Right now, you all are such a burden that we are putting you all up in hotels, because literally most of you all can't take care of yourselves.

You are an ignorant moron…..,

Barry Goldwater was a Civil Rights hero…….Johnson was a racist and likely klan member and MLK sided with the racist Johnson over an actual Civil Rights hero…….you are a useful idiot for the racist democrats, spewing lies and half truths and helping them destroy black Americans….,,

You say republicans did nothing for blacks after dying on the battlefield fighting against the democrat party slave owners….,,,,and then you say between that and voting for the democrat party, the party that fought to end reconstruction, created Jim Crow, created the klan….l.you went with the party that ended reconstruction, created Jim Crow and created the klan?

That doesn’t speak to a great deal of wisdom..……….

the democrat party controls the cities that keep black Americans in generational crime and poverty….

and you keep voting for them……..,.

And the Corwin Amendment?

A desperate, stupid act to avert a Civil War…..a war that would cost 500,000 lives……but a war created by democrats to keep blacks as slaves…you forget that, since you are nothing more than a useful idiot for the racist, hate filled democrat party.

Sooooo….you decided it was the smart thing to do was to vote for the people who actually created Jim Crow, redlining, restrictive covenants, who created the klan to murder blacks, and other racial violence, and who actively fought, with actual violence, the Constitutional Rights of blacks?

And give them more power?

How does that make any sense to a rational human being?

[DudleySmith]

Reparations going to people who were never slaves, taken from people who never owned slaves.....but to be more specific....people who were born hundreds of years after slavery...............is just dumb....

However, if any group needs to pay reparations...it should be the democrat party...

But if the supporters of reparations are right and that some restitution must be made, it becomes obvious who should do it: the Democratic Party. Indeed, it is an objective fact that the Democratic Party is intimately tied to slavery and segregation. The Democratic Party was founded by Andrew Jackson of Tennessee, himself a slaveowner, and Martin Van Buren, a New Yorker who owned at least one slave and exploited enslaved labor. More importantly, Van Buren’s plan gained the support of southern politicians for his policies in exchange for his support of the “peculiar institution” of plantation slavery. Such politicians became so numerous they had a name: doughfaces, since their characters lacked all substance.

This pattern continued through the end of the Civil War and the early 20th century. After the Civil War, Democratic politicians in the southern U.S. supported segregationalist policies that brutally infringed upon the rights and dignity of African-Americans.

As a result of this history, the Democratic Party should provide reparations, not the descendants of one class deemed politically expendable. Still, you may say, “that was the Democratic Party of the mid-19th century. So much has changed since then that the current officeholders and politicians could not possibly bear any blame for what their forebears did.” This is true, but it is also true of the American people.


Today, the American people are not directly responsible for slavery, segregation, Indian removal (also Van Buren), and a host of other injustices for which prominent Democrats ask for reparations. Moreover, the American people are being forced to pay for more spending programs, up to and including reparations. How is it any fairer to ask the American people to accept another raise in their taxes to fix a problem the progenitors of the Democratic Party started? Shouldn’t that be at least acknowledged?

If Anybody Should Pay Reparations, It's The Democrat Party

If anyone should pay reparations to blacks for the injustices of slavery, it should be the institutions that preserved slavery's legacy.

thefederalist.com

It should come from black Africa. They invented slavery. they claim to have invented everything else, and even a bunch of fake science claims they're the first people n stuff. That means everything is their fault.

 

[DudleySmith]

The abolitionists were liberals, dipshit.

Lincoln was a liberal.

Lincoln was a white nationalist, and ran on a white nationalist platform in both elections. Most abolitionists were opposed to allowing any blacks to migrate out of the South , slave or free, and after the Civil War 90% of them remained in the South, and it wasn't until 1910 that that changed much, as factory owners needed cheaper labor and lots of scabs. Lincoln and most abolitionists wanted to ship them all back to Africa.

LBJ’s Democratic Plantation › American Greatness
https://amgreatness.com/2018/09/02/lbjs-democratic-plantation/
there is a man who, according to a memo filed by FBI agent William Branigan, seems to have been in the Ku Klux Klan. This memo was only revealed in recent months, with the release of the JFK Files.


Lyndon Johnson opposed every civil rights proposal considered in his first 20 years as lawmaker

"He had been a congressman, beginning in 1937, for eleven years, and for eleven years he had voted against every civil rights bill –

against not only legislation aimed at ending the poll tax and segregation in the armed services but even against legislation aimed at ending lynching: a one hundred percent record," Caro wrote.


"Running for the Senate in 1948, he had assailed President" Harry "Truman’s entire civil rights program (‘an effort to set up a police state’)…Until 1957, in the Senate, as in the House, his record – by that time a twenty-year record – against civil rights had been consistent," Caro wrote.

The Party of Civil Rights | National Review

The Party of Civil Rights

The depth of Johnson’s prior opposition to civil-rights reform must be digested in some detail to be properly appreciated.

In the House, he did not represent a particularly segregationist constituency (it “made up for being less intensely segregationist than the rest of the South by being more intensely anti-Communist,” as the New York Times put it), but Johnson was practically antebellum in his views.

Never mind civil rights or voting rights: In Congress, Johnson had consistently and repeatedly voted against legislation to protect black Americans from lynching.


As a leader in the Senate, Johnson did his best to cripple the Civil Rights Act of 1957; not having votes sufficient to stop it, he managed to reduce it to an act of mere symbolism by excising the enforcement provisions before sending it to the desk of President Eisenhower.


Johnson’s Democratic colleague Strom Thurmond nonetheless went to the trouble of staging the longest filibuster in history up to that point, speaking for 24 hours in a futile attempt to block the bill. The reformers came back in 1960 with an act to remedy the deficiencies of the 1957 act, and Johnson’s Senate Democrats again staged a record-setting filibuster.

In both cases, the “master of the Senate” petitioned the northeastern Kennedy liberals to credit him for having seen to the law’s passage while at the same time boasting to southern Democrats that he had taken the teeth out of the legislation.



Johnson would later explain his thinking thus: “These Negroes, they’re getting pretty uppity these days, and that’s a problem for us, since they’ve got something now they never had before: the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this — we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference.”

Goldwater.....

Barry M. Goldwater: The Most Consequential Loser in American Politics

Goldwater treated all people the same. As a private citizen, he flew mercy missions to Navaho reservations, never asking for recognition or accepting payment. He felt that “the red man seemed as much—if not more—a part of Arizona and America as any white or black person.”[20] Moreover, a few weeks after Goldwater was discharged from the Army in November 1945, Democratic Arizona Governor Sidney Preston Osborn asked him to organize the Arizona Air National Guard. One of Goldwater’s first recommendations, soon approved, was to desegregate the unit. Goldwater’s integration of the state’s Air National Guard took place more than two years before President Harry Truman integrated the U.S. armed forces.

Goldwater was an early member of the Arizona chapters of both the NAACP and the National Urban League, even making up the latter’s operating deficit when it was getting started. Later as a Senator, he desegregated the Senate cafeteria in 1953, demanding that his black legislative assistant, Kathrine Maxwell, be served along with every other Senate employee after learning she had been denied service.

In the mid-1970s, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, investigating improper operations of the intelligence community in the United States, proposed that transcripts of the FBI tapes about Martin Luther King Jr.’s alleged indiscretions be published. An outraged Goldwater declared he would not be a party to destroying King’s reputation and strode out of the committee room. A fellow Senator recalled that Goldwater’s protest “injected some common sense into the proceedings,” and the electronic surveillance transcripts were not released.[21]

That his opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was based on constitutional grounds and not political considerations was underscored in the final week of the fall campaign.

Speaking in Columbia, South Carolina, Goldwater condemned segregation and declared that government must treat “all men as equal in the arena of law and civil order.”[22] He pledged if elected President to implement all provisions of the act. His forthright pro-civil rights speech was televised on 87 stations throughout the South.

As for the Republican nominee's position on the Civil Rights Act, Goldwater had said he would vote for passage if Section II on public accommodations and Section VII on equal employment opportunity were removed. With his view reinforced by a detailed memorandum from Phoenix lawyer and future Chief Justice William Rehnquist, Goldwater felt these sections were unconstitutional, were unenforceable without a federal police force, and would lead to the creation of racial quotas and affirmative action.

"He was absolutely right about [the two sections of the Civil Rights Act] and they did lead to precisely what Goldwater and most conservatives were afraid of," said Tom Winter, then executive editor of Human Events, who would join Ryskind as its co-owner a year later. As for the "extremism in the defense of liberty" speech, Winter recalled watching it from a San Francisco restaurant "and cheering it because it was clearly about freedom and fighting communism. I certainly didn't think it had anything to do with race."

https://freedomsjournalinstitute.org/uncategorized/urban-legend-goldwater-against-civil-rights/

More specifically, Goldwater had problems with title II and title VII of the 1964 bill. He felt that constitutionally the federal government had no legal right to interfere in who people hired, fired; or to whom they sold their products, goods and services. He felt that “power” laid in the various states, and with the people. He was a strong advocate of the tenth amendment. Goldwater’s constitutional stance did not mean he agreed with the segregation and racial discrimination practiced in the South. To the contrary, he fought against these kinds of racial divides in his own state of Arizona. He supported the integration of the Arizona National guard and Phoenix public schools.[4] Goldwater was, also, a member of the NAACP and the Urban League.[5]
His personal feelings about discrimination are enshrined in the congressional record where he states, “I am unalterably opposed to discrimination or segregation on the basis of race, color, or creed or on any other basis; not only my words, but more importantly my actions through years have repeatedly demonstrated the sincerity of my feeling in this regard…”[6]. And, he would continued to holdfast to his strongly felt convictions that constitutionally the federal government was limited in what it could do, believing that the amoral actions of those perpetuating discrimination and segregation would have to be judged by those in that community. Eventually, the states government and local communities would come to pressure people to change their minds. Goldwater’s view was that the civil disobedience by private citizens against those business establishments was more preferable than intervention by the feds. He, optimistically, believed that racial intolerance would soon buckle under the economic and societal pressure.
