NOBODY should pay them 10 cents. They did nothing to deserve any money. Slavery ended 160 years ago so I don't see any slaves alive walking the earth.

Hear tell it, Democrats were the slave owners so let Pelosi, Schumer, and all Democrats get money taken out of their pay.

The Democratic Party defended slavery, started the Civil War, opposed Reconstruction,
founded the Ku Klux Klan, imposed segregation, perpetrated lynchings, and fought against
the civil rights acts of the 1950s and 1960s.

Do blacks want to support a party who founded the KKK?

I think the major liberal states should offer slavery reparations to blacks. Liberals support reparations, so it is only fair that they pay for them.

As a result, blacks would flock to those states offering reparations. Liberals would then get more of the "diversity" they crave and conservative states would get a lower crime rate.

Let's get behind the CA proposal for "reparations". This is an outstanding idea and I'm sure that many other liberal states would do the same. I think this would make everyone happy and put the "reparations" issue to rest (at least for the rest of the states). Liberal states, of course, would find themselves paying "reparations" perpetually, which would make them happy.

We should ask the descendants of the Roman Empire to pay back reparations to everyone they took slaves 2000 years ago.

Indigenous whites?

What about the Black people who aren’t African-American? Asians?

Oh yea, we don’t exist. You people who are so worried about it can pay up. LOL.

Lucky for you because you’ve got nothing worth giving.

And that pretty much goes for the rest of you posters too.

And no, I don’t want y’all’s reparations. Keep it.

This country will pay a debt to African Americans anyway...by hook or by crook. It’s your call.

You’re right. The country does, and it’s paying now and will continue to pay.
