All good. I welcome the recourse bruh. That was just my $0.02.
The Black Agenda: Reparations
- Thread starter TheNightKing
- Start date
Lol So now the people that almost got wiped out by white people and even now are basically living under third world conditions because of white people are white supremacists? Look man, just stop saying dumb shit. That's all. It's really that simple.
Bruh you bias as hell I don't expect to get fair treatment from someone who capes for groups that side with white supremacist. I've posted what needs to be posted as far as what black americans should recieve as reparations. You lames refuse to listen to it. Sounds like ya have a personal problem.

I brought evidence to prove my point you haven't. Show me the red native americans who owned slaves and exiled the black american natives from their own tribes, that are advocating for black americans to get reparations.
Bro niggas gotta stop believing stereotypes. Every nigga you know is not gonna but rims a chain and drugs
Not to be that guy yes their are many white claiming native an some Native Tribes like Cherokee had slavery and supported confederacy. But Geronimo and then didn’t own slaves Seminole’s didn’t have slaves I don’t think. But that’s not really the point
notice how dude is trying to shift the whole conversation from us talking about actual ways and practical ideas on what reparations might look like for black folks...
to him pointing at other groups and screaming fuck them what about us and insults being thrown around.
He seem like an agent

I want a 500k or more check for every ADOS member and extra paid by corporations benefited off of slavery as well (Coke, Pepsi, Wells Fargo, etc.).
The reason for reparations (imo) shouldnt be to uplift anything. Reparations are simply a repayment of lost wages and damages occured. Now would better communities be a byproduct of everybody getting checks? Sure...but at the end of day everybody gotta be responsible for themselves for how they use their money.
I dont see why somebody who makes more money through their employer should get more money. That disproportionately hurts the poor and those that really need it. If people want to try to survive on the reparation check they get every month so be it. But hopefully for most of us, that check provides us the financial security to invest, go to school, start a business, still be a active consumer in retirement, etc. With tax breaks, you're not really shifting the starting point. If somebody cant find a decent job, how do they benefit? You think politicians are gonna be crazy about starting bureacratic programs for people who dont pay taxes? (I HATE the idea of money into these big government programs for blacks mentioned here anyway but thats another story). If everybody gets a check, everybody consumes and invests.
If every black slave descendant gets 12000 a year (1,000 per month) that equals to about 360 billion or about 7 percent of the united states budget per year. If people are investing it and spending it to consume products then it actually can help grow the economy.
They families that profited is a good idea. Made a thread about it and it got ignored.
This reminds me...
Anybody ever feel some type of way when they meet a white person with their last name?
The question of whether their ancestors ever enslaved mine crosses my mind
Always puts a little something extra to the interactions I have with them.
There are native Indian tribes that participated in chattel slavery, regardless of how brutal.
The Five Civilized Tribes owned, captured, and returned black slaves because they sided with the slaveholders, and the Confederacy, to do so.
And when the treaty of 1866 was enacted, Natives Indians did not honor the agreement with blacks enslaved by them.
And them being strict with percentages of Native Indian blood has long been questioned due to the Dawes Rolls and "$5 Indian" scam.
To their credit, in cases like the Seminoles, some Native Indians sided with black slaves.
But if the shoe fits, Native Indians should be held accountable for their participation in the slave trade just like everyone else.
