No reparations No vote
“Just wait and see someday we’ll all be free” -Donny Hathaway
They been looking in the past for at least 70 years.
One thing I learned from history is that nothing changed despite humanity knowing their history, humans still fight amongst themselves over such trivial things and look at each other with such hatred over what happened in the past.
This idea of different shades and colors has been our downfall.
People to live with the past are always found themselves stuck under the bottom of the water wells. Let's look at those corrupt governments of Africa independence state today. How did they treat their own people. Worse than the slavery
Hope? Maybe Buffalo soldiers should not have played a key role in the genocide of the American tribes during the decades-long Indian wars!
He is just selling the old product that gave oppressed hope. But Jigga church was invented because black were not welcome in White church or if they did allow them in they had to sit in the crows nest in the back row up stairs. It really is not ancient Kemet or Hausa or Ethiopian. But it was better than nothing and the Adoni knew this and gave blessing anyway. Reparations shouldn't even be a problem forget reparation just demand the laws be changed that allows black people to bring claims for ancient crimes in this country like the theft of an ancestors property or the unlawful peonage chain gang work and incarceration of an ancestor or the wrongful death of an ancestor or the theft by extortion of ancestors money. Then reparation would look real good then we're talking trillions of dollars 😊
I. THINK. ALLL. THE. BLACK AMERICANS. FOR. ALL. THE. WONDERFUL THINGS. 💙 DID. FOR. AMERICA 🇺🇸
That’s blacks trick people into giving them free stuff ,think about something that has been over for centuries ,nothing is enough for blacks ,they are the real racist ones .
WONDERFUL 💙 GUY 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
An American is an American is an American is an American. Period.
It must be election season.rascism and prejudice is all the left sees or creates.
"what do you do?"
"take 20% of the top,hallelujah!"
WHAT "REGRESSIVE" CRAP. Capitalism:The UNKNOWN Ideal by Ayn Rand. Alex Epstein 's "FOSSIL FUTURE" on sale now. HUMAN FLOURISHING. The MORAL Case for Fossil Fuels.
The other Nation say black people today do not deserve reparations, but what you're not understanding is that today's black people were in their Ancestors Loins when they put in that work, so they are one yesterday and today.
The EMT’s that lynched Elijah McClain via ketamine injection will do a decade in jail (probably a lot less). Ain’t no hope for Black people in America.
Stop involving me with America or the black community. America has been violating my civil rights since the day that I have been born. I want absolutely nothing to do with America or the black community.
When did Native American’s get reparations? They have not received anything but broken treaties and erasure in America.
If I have to take the blame for what happened two hundred years ago,can I at least take credit for,electricity,automobiles,airplanes,the telephone,radio,medical tech;computers,satellite communication,and television to name a very small few?
Black people always want money..
