Reparations for Black Americans
- Share via
In my opinion, the reparations idea is another facet of the old “the world owes me a living” theme espoused by embittered, angry individuals.
I suggest that justice would be better served if African-Americans placed the blame for their loss of culture and humanity where it belongs, on the shoulders of the African blacks who sold their fellow tribesmen to ruthless Swahili slave merchants.
