I don’t think it is the place of the government to give the money, it should be traced back to who profited from the Slaves and than the Families and Businesses should be the ones paying the money. IF the Government did profit from them they should pay their share as well, but it should not be tax payer dollars only.

Society as a whole let it happen, and the government is our most organized branch of society. It’s the only effective way to pay it.
As always, raise taxes on the wealthy.
