I have heard some persons argue for reparations. Although this violates due process completely and requires persons of today to pay for the sins of centuries past, I am actually willing to pay reparations to put this bullshit completely behind us once and for all. I think we should pay $500….no, let’s make that $1000. You just need to show me the scars on your back where your master beat you with a bullwhip and the money is all your’s. That’s $1000 per scar. Agreed? Do you know who broke that promise of a mule and land to the newly freed slaves? I am thinking it’s the same people, of the same political party, that fought to keep them as slaves in the first place and who continue trying to keep them as slaves to this day. It’s the same party that has pushed racist policies in action and deed since it’s founding through today.

I can. This was a hearing more or less to make the case for the study of reparations (not like we really need one IMO, but I get how these things are done and this is a first step). Usually it is during the study and presentation of the results in latter meetings when we sees the heavy hitters and the research. What we have to do is keep the pressure up that this doesn't just stop or is procedurally slowed down as it winds through a ridiculously slow process which in many cases is when these things have a tendency to go away.

Thanks to Ta-Nehisi Coates and Democracy Now for this discussion. One point that can’t be emphasized enough is that slavery begat racism, and right now, as I’m writing this, racism impacts every major institution. We can’t name an institution that does not consistently, annually, produce racially disparate outcomes: Education. Finance. Employment. Criminal justice. Economics. Health care. Politics. Law. Entertainment. Mental health. And so on. In fact, this is how we’ve been able to have “racism without racists,” as Eduardo Bonilla-Silva wrote. So long as we have fundamentally “nice” people, who don’t make the connection between historical racism and modern systems (which came to be via policy, voting, pseudo science, unconscious bias, etc.), we’ll continue to create racist outcomes that we simply don’t see.

@@KarlaBedminister We were still living under Jim Crow laws, share cropping which was worse than slavery because you did all the work and ended up in debt. We couldn't go certain places, or be in certain professions. We were told we would only get a job that no white person would ever want. You had to ride on the back of the bus or go to the back door, if you went to the store you were only served after the whites in the store even if you were there first. Even those that lived up north had to fear if you went out of your neighborhood. If you spoke against your oppression you would be killed usually lynched or burned. We were put in jail even if you were innocent and you didn't get a fair trial and we often still don't get a fair trial. We were often cheated and kept in poverty. Some of us were still kept on plantations with someone with a gun to kill you if you tried to leave, (just like slavery). We did all the work and couldn't afford to buy enough to eat and had to live in raggedy run down housing or project slums in the north. We were killed for nothing or sometimes to keep fear high or just for fun. The list of offenses is long. All of our leaders that tried to stand up for us were slandered as criminals, plotted against and some were killed. Our organizations were destroyed or neutralized. We still lived under conditions that were just like slavery after 1865. The medical professionals did cruel experiments on us. I remember reading about an interview done of a former slave a few decades after slavery. She was asked about what it was like during slavery and her response was, "just like it is now."

Coates has said he is mainly a journalist and has not really studied reparations. However, no group receivimg reparations in this country has foregone financial justice in the form of cash payments to individuals. Coates apparently believes American descendants of slaves need to have more study on the wealth gap when we have men like Dr. Sandy Darrity who has already done extensive study and was ignored by this commission to apparently do a study.

My case for reparation for slavery starts with the end of slavery and that is the federal payroll tax. Emancipation might have started in 1865 but in 1913 the government enacted the Federal Reserve and also the Federal payroll tax, nationalizing slavery. Nowhere in the United States Constitution you will find talk of reporting one's wages or earnings or penalties for not doing so. Yes, we can have Nationalize Universal Slavery but we can't have Universal Health Care.

Educate yourself on how your particular jurisdiction's electoral systems works and field candidates on the state and local level to move your agenda forward. If you want people in place to move on reparations when the time comes then you've got to cultivate and get those people in place beginning now. Acting, voting and holding feet to the fire are the only ways you can do it.

If it wasn't groupthink, you would disrespect the arguments rather than disrespect the man.

He believes that reparations paid today don't address the Black Community's biggest problems. He continues to outline a logical case for his opinions. I am not entirely persuaded by his logic, but I am more persuaded by his logic than his detractors because they refuse to engage his argument. They just want to call him names, often racist names. Your refusal to engage the argument, but instead hate, name call, disrespect him, and otherize display that you are not interested in finding logical solutions.
