What are those misconceptions?thanks. sure. now, Abraham Lincoln freed the black people from demofks. So I'm still trying to figure out how it is they were wronged after that? Oh and why demofks are the only ones holding the black people down still today? demofks truly believe the black people are inferior. why?explain your post for me. in your words.No living blacks have been victimized by past wrongs other than great society and welfare state.There is no question that blacks have been victimized by past wrongs.
The question is are reparations a proper response to what happened well over 150 years ago?
Considering all the blood spilled to free slaves and all the legal and special governmental
actions taken to boost blacks, reparations are not the way to go.
It will open the flood gates for so many special interest groups looking for their hand out too.

It is a counter narrative to the premise of the prior poster's comment that no living blacks have been victimized by past wrongs other than great society and welfare state.
Does that help?
Glad to help. Not sure what to tell you about your other misconceptions. Possibly an upper level American History Class post WWII to current period.
