Money from people who never owned slaves to people who have never been slaves. It's crazy.

NOPE, not crazy at all! Based on your logic, people who inherit money have no right to it because they did NOTHING to earn it. The US was built off the forced free labor of Black people, yet they're the only ones who haven't benefitted from it. How do you think the US amassed so much wealth???

Can’t understand the argument myself. They are basically using the past as a political talking point in the future. It’s a sham plain and simple

It is always refreshing to see your reaction on slavery and sensitive issues. You show just how evolved you are. Race is a factor BECAUSE PARENTS teach it to their children. People is quick to see race INSTEAD of HUMANITY. Once people realize we are humans and not skin colour, then only will the world change. I have a lot of respect for you. You are a female version of Thomas Sowell. People matter in your eyes, not race. You should consider a career in politics. It is people like you who can make a change for the good. I would definitely vote for you and I'm white. Your pod is already making a difference. Your views makes a difference. RESPECT!!!!

The market for enslaved people did not disappear following abolition in Britain. Traders continued to meet demand in places like Brazil and Cuba. To combat the illegal trade in African people who had been enslaved, the British Navy organised anti-slavery patrols off the West African coast.But no one says much about that.Stay safe young lady.

Yes, I agree with you.

He is the one paid to turn this on his people. He is subtly describing himself for those who care to look deeper into his history.

Sowell sucks.

You're not wrong. The whole thing is fucked and makes no sense x.x It's indeed people demanding repayment for the ancestors of black peoples who were slaves from people who never owned slaves. If they can, sometimes people will track down the ancestors of the family that owned their ancestors and shame them into paying repayment :/ As far as I know, this is only a thing in the USA. I, too, think people just want someone to blame and will try using any means to get a leg up. It's sad and I hope that we, as a people, can eventually move past the scars in history to create a better future with less hate and blame. No one should try "weighing" traumas, especially as a collective. Sure, there are places and points in history where slaves were treated comparatively better, had greater prospects of future freedom, and may have even had some laws protecting them but it's still a generally bad thing, which I'd like to think that we can all agree on slavery being generally bad....I hope xD Some things that were done that kept black people from owning property (especially in better areas) were HOA (Home Owner Association) guidelines and practices that would discourage realtors from selling or renting homes to blacks or outright bar them from doing so.

Hi. Thank you for discussing this issue. The reparations are not in general, for the sale of themselves. The reparations are specific to the race based criminality that has taken place since. For instance, in California, there's recently been reparations to a black family that had their beachfront property stolen from them. They were kicked off their own property for being black. And the justice system finally took their case all the way to get them their land back. That is reparations that is logical and long overdue..

When are we going to leave the past in the past? Can't we just move on in the here and now and try to be respectful of each other. ❤

The whole world history needs to be repaired.

I love your videos more every time. And now I can appreciate even more your great common sense. “Nobody needs to get paid for nothing”. Thank you Sarah. 🙏🏻

This was an interesting video. You should look up William Ellison. He was the largest slave owner in SC.

If you want some hard hitting truths watch a movie called Kunta Kinte of a Gambian slave. It was also a series I think so get your tissue box, popcorn & drink ready...

lol...Sarah, you see right through the bullshit!

He was saying black slaves were worth more, so black people are owed more back pay? 😅

Also it was black people that sold other black people the people that bought slaves could only go on the land for about two years without contracting some chronic illness also white British where slaves to the romans and Britain abolished it

I've always wondered if the blacks, Latinos, and indigenous people, who's ancestors owned slaves, should have to pay too. What about the people with ancestors involved in the abolitionist movement, underground railroad, and that died setting the slaves free?

Sad thing is, he's not from America and speaking for people he's not part of.

Reparations are owed to the descendants of those enslaved in the US. The accrued wealth from the payment of wages that should have been paid would have passed to their descendants; this is what happened with whites. (And I'm not even referencing the 100+ thriving Black communities intentionally destroyed by ws and by a ws govt.) Further, freed slaves were promised reparations (40 acres + mule) by the US govt. The govt made that agreement because it knew the former enslaved were owed.

Your reaction to this made it seem like Trevor Noah was truly advocating for reparations. He was not. He was responding to someone's question about the idea of reparations for black citizens of the US and why that should be considered differently than helping poor white people who are currently disenfranchised. Trevor was answering a question from an audience member about the idea of reparations, not truly advocating for it himself. If you both heard the opening question and the full response, instead of just breaking up the response along with Thomas Sowell's discussion, you get a better idea of what was actually being discussed. Both of them were correct and Noah even finished by stating that historically American blacks have been disadvantaged for a variety of systemic reasons and that is a different discussion than that about people recently disadvantaged, rather than over time. Trevor Noah is very good at adopting the point of view of a particular group for discussion purposes. I don't think he is necessarily actually advocating for reparations from a belief that that is necessarily the correct thing to do. I suspect he would make a strong argument from the other side if the question had been posed differently. Noah often adopts a viewpoint just to make people think about things differently than they may have otherwise. Thomas Sowell also seems to be a smart man who can argue his position well. He appears to be more focused on arguing his particular point of view, though, rather than being provocative, as Trevor Noah often does.

Sowell is a national treasure.

The comments that she's reacting to were in response to a question that was posed to Trevor Noah. Based on the question asked, he gave an answer that would be generally correct.

Once again, Thomas Sowell gets it completely wrong. Yes, different groups of people throughout history may have been in bondage at one time or another. But nowhere was there the state sanctioned and legal subjugation of an entire people based solely on race that was the American chattel slave system. Not only were these people the "property" of others, but their decedents were as well, in perpetuity! Generation after generation were held in bondage and were bought, sold, beaten, raped, and denied their dignity. And even after the importation of slaves was outlawed, slave owners forcibly bred their slaves in order to sustain this evil system. Yes, chattel slavery did come to an end after nearly three hundred years, (it took a civil war to end it), but the "Jim Crow" system that replaced it continued to subjugate and cheat the descendants who came after. Some type of "payment" is owed to the generations that struggled to reclaim the dignity and prosperity that was denied for so long! Shame on Mr. Sowell!

Chattel slavery was nothing special at all! Nothing, other than the racial factor was something that might have stood out.

While living in the Jim Crow South and facing extreme discrimination was obviously terrible, (to say the least), it cannot compare to having every single facet of your existence, (and the existence of countless generations that followed), determined by the whims of your "Master" in a system that stripped people of their dignity and humanity, for all time!

@G-MAN1958 no one says that you can't have your opinion, no matter how uninformed you are on the subject matter. When it becomes a problem is when you start 'shaming others' (ironically often more informed answers than the one held by the person trying to 'shame' the other, something called the dunning Kruger effect) for theirs. Now obviously we all agree slavery is bad, so far we all with you! 👍 Where you go off is when it comes to your view of (as you call it with a clear difference in your mind) bondage of other ethnicities. This view is either derived through a lack of knowledge (Dunning-Kruger) or simply an ideology based on victimhood. Obviously non of us have lived through slavery, but I'll give you a few examples of slavery that were not American Chattel slavery and you can tell me which you'd have preferred as a slave. 1) you are chained on a bench on a ship, you will eat, defecate, piss, sleep and predominantly row a boat from that very spot, surrounded by dozens of others with the same fate. The sun will burn down on you, basically baking you until your flesh came off your bones, all while sea water was spraying everywhere, with an average life expectancy of 2 months. 2) you will be castrated and have a 30% chance of survival. If you do survive then you will live in servitude for the rest of your life, knowing you can never have any children and you are the last of your line. 3) you will be beheaded for the gods. 4) you will live your life under a ruler. You will work the fields, you will only be allowed to have a family or children if your ruler agrees, you will not be allowed to move to another place. Your children and their children will live in 'bondage' for their lives, as have your fathers and their fathers before them. Which one, if you were a slave, would you have chosen and which one do you think was the cruelest?

@@christiandengler6689 Yes, the subjugation of various groups because of military conquest, plunder, religious intolerance, social status, etc. was all reprehensible. But the American system of chattel slavery (and it's aftermath), whereby a specific race and their descendants were held in state sanctioned bondage in order to support and perpetuate an economic system which would not have been possible but for their perpetual bondage for nearly three hundred years, deserves both specific condemnation and redress.
