LOLLLLLLL. Well that didn't take long. Very "African-American" response, NYWriterdude. freespirit really touched a nerve, I see. You brought out all the stereotypes: angry, ghetto, Section 8, no passport, felon. Let me guess. You don't eat chicken & waffles and watermelon either, huh? Hahahahahaha.

Those stereotypes are true of a certain percentage of the population and the poster in question certainly uses all the arguments that those people use.
Successful people don't sit around talking about reparations.
But Jewish reparations today in Europe (granting them citizenship which opens up a whole host of opportunities for them) is not about writing Jews checks (that only happened in decades after WW2, and only happened because Germany lost the war).
Basically Spain, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Poland all want to EARN money off Jews. Israel is a Jewish state that any Jew can go to (just like Ghana offers the slave descendants of Africans citizenship).
The citizenship process is extensive and SCREENS out poor people of Jewish heritage.
It's still a form of reparations, but reparations to the educated and/or well off. One that would not happen if Jews were poorly educated and poor.
The US establishment is unwilling to broadly implement affirmative action, which in and of itself would be a weak form of reparations.

I'm surprised he/it didn't call me loud, fat, and a crackhead to complete his offensive response.
So only rich people should get reparations. Gotcha.
FYI, the US is not going to give reparations to black Americans because it would stop their constant revenue stream and bankrupt the country. As much as some of you think black people are low class, if we took our money out of this country, that's all she wrote. It's why they will not allow influential black people to start talking economics, and it's why influential black people in the past were...stopped when they started talking economics. They also don't want us to have a financial advantage because unlike us, they remember the past. Conquering a nation isn't easy.

It's obscene to perpetrate a commonly used racist sentiment used by white supremacists telling AAs to "go back to Africa".

An educated woman doing genealogy finds out Harvard has photos of two of her ancestors, and is suing for damages as well as owenship, as she as the descendent is entitled to what her ancestor owned.
Princeton and Virgina Theological Seminary have set up funds for this.
Of course to qualify the person has to be good at genealogical research to trace to the damaged ancestor, or else the fund denies you.
People of Jewish descent, even if they are Jewish can get European citizenship ONLY if they trace back to a Sephardic community or ancestor (Spain or Portugal) or trace back to an ancestor who fled due to the Holocaust (Austria, Germany, Poland). These programs are not open to all Jews or all Jewish descendents, either.
Jewish people don't face BROAD employment, housing, and other forms of discrimination presently. Those things would need to be dealt with PRESENTLY to improve things for African Americans, or otherwise there are no reparations that would really make a difference.
Hey, ADOS. No, I'm just not an angry ghetto person who is pissed at the world because I'm on Section 8. What utter garbage.
Black people, even African Americans are not the BORG!
I get that due to your extensive criminal record you don't have a passport, so citizenship in any other country, much less a passport is not going to happen. Fortunately not all African Americans are FELONS.
I've been silently reading along for months now and I have to say that I believed you were black at some point but I honestly don't know of one African American who would make a post like this. Angry ghetto person? On section 8? I've only heard comments like this from white facebook trolls.
Oh goodness, you're trying to perpetuate the lie of being "African American". Perhaps your online persona is, but you are not one. And with that, you're a non-factor in discussing AA reparations. Keep your worthless nose out of our business and focus on your own ethnic group.
this man claims to be black, gay, jew, Columbia graduated, and some other fabricated BS.
Judging by the shallowness of his comments i can strongly speculate he is a white man.
