Zone1 Why Kamala Harris is an important case to discuss for the Reparations debate.

[DGS49]

The same observation has been made about Barry Soetoro (aka "Barak Obama"). He has no ancestors who were American slaves, therefore when they start spreading out the reparations money, he gets bupkis. Of course, he profited greatly from the illusion that he was "Black," so he will be fine.

How then do you “ determine “ who gets reparations and who doesn’t? Hypothetically say we found out that JG ‘s family were once slaves Should. HE get reparations? Don’t think so !

Who is JG? But yeah that's exactly why I brought up Kamala Harris. According to IM2 she should get a share of that $100 Trillion dollar payout.

Ok let's say Reparations is signed into law and every Black American citizen gets a share of the payout. Would Kamala Harris receive a share of the money? Let's briefly go over some facts and to help clarify her case:

1. Kamala Harris is indeed a "Black American" citizen of the US.
2.Kamala Harris' lineage does NOT in anyway trace back to American black slavery.
3. She is descended from JAMAICAN plantation owners who owned many Black slaves.
4. She is extremely wealthy and powerful, so would that affect her share or not?

Obviously, Kamala Harris opens up the proverbial can of worms on the entire Reparations narrative. Can any of the boards Reparation experts comment on Kamala Harris' situation as it pertains to her being eligible for Reparations payout? Thanks

Yeah but she is stupid and uninformed and that is decisive

The historians John Thornton and Linda Heywood of Boston University estimate that 90 percent of those shipped to the New World were enslaved by Africans and then sold to European traders. The sad truth is that without complex business partnerships between African elites and European traders and commercial agents, the slave trade to the New World would have been impossible, at least on the scale it occurred.
