You aren't owed anything. There haven't been any slaves or slave owners around here for over a hundred years. IDIOT.Not if we get what we are owed. Because we aren't on the bottom now.
How dare you. On the one hand, lament about slavery and how "you" are owed. Comment about how the mean old whitey took all the value of the slaves labor. Those bastards, living off the labor of the slave. And yet, here you are, on the other hand, demanding your piece of the labor of those long dead slaves. Because make no doubt about it, you are no more entitled to the value of that labor than the slave owner. You don't get to win the womb lottery. I mean I can't believe anybody is considering reparations. Hell, it is in the freakin Constitution. "There will be no blood libel". You don't get to raise Constitutional questions like equality, and then discard the parts you don't like, like no blood libel.As expected. The same dumb ass replies while knowing that reparations are not just being asked for slavery. None of you cowards can face:
"Numerous white analysts have attacked the idea of white society owing such back wages for slavery; they argue that figuring out the debts of a supposedly too-distant history is just too difficult. Yet such an argument almost always fails to note that the damages done to African Americans did not end with slavery, but persisted for another one hundred years in the form of legal segregation, and then for several more decades in present-day discrimination. The era of black enslavement was not followed by a century of redress, justice, and equality, but rather just the opposite. Moreover, today, there are millions of living African Americans who suffered severely under legal segregation, and many more continue to suffer today from racial discrimination at the hands of many white Americans."
The truth.
I see you didn't read the link, you just read the OP and posted dumb shit. In fact, you didn't even read to OP.

Idiot.
How many generations pass the guilt. The Bible says 7 but I'm not sure I agree with that. Certainly if you wrong me, you owe me. If your father wrongs my father you still owe me something I think. If your great great grandfather wrongs my great great grandfather I'm not sure what I'm entitled to.Documenting the Costs of Slavery, Segregation, and Contemporary Racism: Why Reparations Are in Order for African Americans

Joe Richard Feagin is an American sociologist and social theorist who has conducted extensive research on racial and gender issues, especially in regard to the United States. He is currently the Ella C. McFadden Distinguished Professor at Texas A&M University. Feagin has taught at the University of Massachusetts, Boston, University of California, Riverside, University of Texas at Austin, University of Florida, and Texas A&M University. Feagin has done much research work on race and ethnic relations and has served as the scholar in residence at the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. He has written over 60 books. He is the 2006 recipient of a Harvard Alumni Association achievement award and was the 1999–2000 president of the American Sociological Association.
Since the mid-1600s, now for some fifteen generations or so, the exploitation and oppression of African Americans has redistributed income and wealth earned by black labor to generations of white Americans, thereby leaving the former relatively impoverished as a group and the latter relatively privileged as a group. Consider just the value of the African American labor that was expropriated. The white owner’s cost for maintaining an enslaved African American was generally very low, and under many circumstances large profits could be generated from the labor of such a subordinated worker. For example, researcher Larry Neal has calculated that the current (1983) value of the slave labor expropriated by whites from 1620 to 1865 ranges from about $963 billion to as much as $97,064 billion, depending on the rate of interest chosen for the long intervening period. Historical economist James Marketti estimates the dollar value of the labor taken from enslaved African Americans from 1790 to 1860 to be, depending on the historical assumptions, from $7 billion to as much as $40 billion. Such a figure roughly indicates what black individuals and families lost in income because they did not control their labor. Marketti suggests that, if that stolen income is multiplied by taking into account lost interest from then to the present, the current (1983) economic loss (income diverted) for black Americans ranges from $2.1 to $4.7 trillion. Updating these 1983 estimates to today would place the current value of the diverted income from black labor, plus interest, into many trillions of United States dollars.

Of course I will see the standard retardation by delusional racist whites and those who wannabe white about democrats and liberals, but this is reality and if you have to concoct some crazy shit to deny what is documented in the American record, your ass is a mental case needing to take up residency at your nearest funny farm.
I wonder if a defect in the brain is what causes racism or if racism causes a defect in the brain? In either case it appears to negatively impact reading abilities and comprehension and maybe even cause color blindness because when you quoted the applicable part and then highlighted it by changing the text color to read it's like they still didn't see it, couldn't read it or didn't understand it"Numerous white analysts have attacked the idea of white society owing such back wages for slavery; they argue that figuring out the debts of a supposedly too-distant history is just too difficult.

The truth.
You are retarded and purposefully ignorant about what whites have done because you are part of this:The excuses that liberal use to explain black dysfunction and failure in 2021 stretch back to 1619.
but they defy common sense
because 13% of the population no matter how hard they work cannot be responsible for 100% of the wealth
and in spite of lib revisionists claims other academics have argued that slavery was actually an anchor on economic progress

Yeah, I'm beginning to wonder if we aren't talking to adults with mental disabilities. All along since I started posting here I have said the issue is not slavery, but these retreads keep repeating the same silly mess. Even worse, the OP was also pointing out thfe fact that he is a white man who learned all the things whites have done and he doesn't hate himself or feel guilty for being white. In fact he is the colorblind non racist white these people all claim to be, yet they denigrate him.As expected.

I don't blame. I state facts. Stop believe that white race bait bullshit. Because hites like you are the last people who I am going to listen to tell me about work. Everything whites have is due to legislation. That's a fact.IM2
I'll give you 25 cents if you promise to make an effort and stop blaming everyone around you. If you want more you'll have to work for it.

We are talking about things that have created what we have today. Slaves built the wealth of this country. That's reality. One you can't face. America wou;d not be richer without what slaves were made to do. You need to quit repeating that stupid ass white race baited bullshit and face reality.How could I not know since blacks come on this forum and others every day to cry about events long ago?
but you are misinformed when you claim that black slaves built the wealth of America.
the slaves built some of the wealth but not enough to justify their being here
America would be a richer country today if the slaves had never left africa

No, thats an exaggeration if not an outright lieSlaves built the wealth of this country. That's reality.

No they didn’t. At best slaves created the wealth the South squandered trying to seceded from the union. Most of the wealth came from the northern and western states where slavery was never legal. If you want to make a claim that some group was responsible for the wealth of the US, it was the immigrants who settled in the major cities of the north and west. Slaves never amounted to more than a small percentage of the population and their production was limited to agriculture for the export of cheap raw materials to Britain. Wealth isn’t created by exporting low profit raw materials, it’s created by exporting and selling finished products.We are talking about things that have created what we have today. Slaves built the wealth of this country. That's reality. One you can't face. America wou;d not be richer without what slaves were made to do. You need to quit repeating that stupid ass white race baited bullshit and face reality.
