Sometimes I can't figure out what their "cause" is. I want to reserve the right to ̶m̶o̶s̶t̶l̶y̶ ̶p̶e̶a̶c̶e̶f̶u̶l̶l̶y̶ ̶p̶r̶o̶t̶e̶s̶t̶ riot since my people were enslaved in Egypt, and had to risk drowning between parted waters to escape. Where is my check?
Different country, different era, it’s not as connected as current times are to slavery when you take Jim Crow and the war on drugs into account.
Essentially, the side that opposed slavery kept trying g to subjugate blacks ever since then. From revisionism (daughters of the confederacy), to draconian laws meant to target minorities. Often to keep a prison slave system going.
Poverty and lack of education resources leads to the self sabotaging behavior.

Who says we don't suffer from that. Do you have any idea what the illiteracy rate among Jews is?

Just maybe self-sabotaging behavior led to susceptibility to being enslaved and, since liberation to poverty and lack of education. The example I gave, the Hebrew slaves, did not continue self-sabotaging behavior on liberation. In fact, quite the contrary. They adopted the Ten Commandments, 613 rules of conduct and thus the rule of law. While I am not certain on the amount of Jewish illiteracy (I did call you out on it) the Jews are not widely demanding "reparations." I am stating the demand, though, to make a point; if all oppressors paid reparations, we'd have a constant stream of money going every which way, which would cancel out. We'd spend more transferring wealth than producing it.
