Reparations should be given not in the form of direct monetary payments, but massive investment in black communities and especially schools and scholarships. All black people in America suffer from systemic racism, so build a system they all benefit from regardless of who their ancestors were. Giving out monetary reparations won’t solve any problems. This system will provide permanent benefits to all current and future black Americans.
It is not only for slavery, but for Jim Crow, segregation and systematic racism. And sorry (not sorry), but black people should be the ones deciding whether they want reparations or not, not white people deciding for them wether they are ridiculous or not.
So black people dont get to decide on whether they get reparation after generations of stolen wealth? Yeah, that sounds like racist right wing propaganda bullshit.
1- Nobody should have to embrace European culture. European culture is not superior to any other culture. Don’t be a Eurocentric moron.
2- America cannot be racist because of Obama? Are you 5? Things got pretty racist back then with people accusing Obama of being a Muslim terrorist and wanting to see his birth certificate because they didn’t even believe that he was American. Also, as soon as his term was over Americans elected a racist fascists that enacted pretty racist policies that made lives of black people harder.
3- What kind of logic is that? Just because some black people do well doesn’t mean that systematic racism doesn’t exist. That is like saying that because some Jewish people didn’t get killed the Holocaust never happened. Or like saying that because some native Americans survived, the American Holocaust didn’t happen.
You keep spewing the same bullshit right wing rhetoric.
Here is some starter reading material for you about what systematic racism.
Damn, I don’t know what you’ve started here but the number of presumably white people coming up with all sorts of reasons to argue why black people shouldn’t have reparations is… is it a white settler moment? Then to follow this up with ‘you need to include white people or they’re not going to like it’ is… maybe Malcolm X was onto something about white liberals.
How do you sort out who rightfully deserves the reparations and who should rightfully pay because of past slave ownership?

Almost as if you should fix the system, not compensate individuals financially.
Fake news!
The same way the Jews got reparations for the Hollocaust

All black people? Or black people who were victims of America’s racial inequality?
Neither black nor white people should decide whether they get money but common sense/moral integrity should decide
