He wants $14 trillion and an apology from the government.

“Reparations would require the entire country to … admit that the result of slavery has been 200 years of systemic racism and for that reason Black folks have been denied $13-15 trillion of wealth and therefore we as a country now must atone by paying Black people of all stripes —the rich ones, the poor ones, and the middle—out of our pocket,” Johnson says.
How about a countersuit? I want $14 trillion from you for falsely accusing me.
If you can prove I enslaved you, I'll drop my charges. But since I know you can't, let's just consider you guilty as charged. I take Paypal. Or you could send me a pallet of postal money orders if you like. I'll even take cash. Gold. I'm easy. Oh, and I'll need that apology as well. When you accuse me of something I didn't do, an apology is in order... in addition the $14 trillion.

Since Sumer is around anymore, I think it is now Iraq. Well, he better get on with dealing with the Iraqi government. This should be entertaining.
The bulk majority of “African Americans” were never slaves, nor were their descendants. Just like the bulk majority of “white people” never had slaves, Nor were they descended from slave owners. In fact most Americans citizens (Black and white) immigrated here after the First and second world wars. No one owes anyone anything.

But, but, the wealth gap. Blacks want to be as wealthy as Whites and it was the Civil War (156 years ago) that held them back.
So Blacks don't like Whites but have no problem taking their money....
