Um - I can post links too. Shall I post a list of European, Asian, and South American nations embassies? Better yet - maybe you could explain what your point is in providing a list of African nation embassies.
Obama doesn't support reparations, or at least he said he didn't at one of the debates.
2004 Obama opposed reparations for slavery.
After his election, Obama evolved, stating he was against "just signing over checks to African-Americans," leaving open that other types of reparations would be acceptable to him.

To whom would the reparations be paid? There are no living former slaves.
Reparations is a stupid idea. There is no one alive who has profited from slavery. Slavery, for all of its ugliness, was a legal thing in the Untied States, even after the start of the civil war.
We have all profited from some nasty stuff throughout history, we can't pay everyone everything that happened to their greatX5 grand parent.
I find it quite ironic that a non-Black American was the one who started this thread knowing that the "regulars" wouldn't even bother to realize that none of the Black posters are asking for reparations.
And so goes the usual manner of the daily anti-Black C-D thread...carry on.
It's been preached that black africans were actually the rulers of ancient Egypt long long ago and they were the society that built the Sphinx, the pyramids, obelisks, etc...............

Pretty much. I did not even know they were giving out checks, nobody gave me the memo. Guess I will go outside and wait for my gobment manna to fall out of the welfare blimp.
Even IF reparations were Ok; WHICH people? Not all Blacks here are of slave family and some white people DO have "slave" Black in them too.
To be nasty about it: the best "reparations" would be sending Blacks of American slave family BACK to Africa at our expense but that would mean cutting off US citizenship for them. Again. WHICH Blacks? Most of them are mixes of free and slave families.
