So why should my ancestors pay "reparations" to people who are not even alive? Most blacks today couldn't tell you where their family actually hailed from, let alone if they were slaves. Not every black in this country was a product of slavery. So how do we prove WHO gets the reparations? And why would anyone be entitled to it these days anyhow?

Just create a company funded by the government too research whom are decendants of slaves...make it part of the stimulus package.

If these racially motivated players really wanted to get to the source of the injustices of slavery, perhaps they should confront the descendants of the very people who began the African slave trade and made their living by raiding the villages of the soon-to-be African slaves, namely the Arabs.

I got trouble for saying just this in Sociology class. You would of thought; I pissed in some folks corn-flakes...
I would run around base yelling..."Take their oil, these are the SOBs responsible for slavery." However, I'd probably get fired and can no longer contribute to the stimulus funding...
Stay safe.
