    1. If you are alive today then you must have had ancestors during that time period. Or you have to explain how you are here today if you had no one back then.

    2. Are we making native Americans pay reparations for their slavery as well? Or just the tribes that joined with the Confederacy? How about the American freed slaves for their slavery of liberians?

    3. @OlderG0ds Yes if they chose to come here and become a citizen. You just don’t inherit the good things about this country, you inherit the debt as well. So this is now your debt, welcome to America.

    1. @Michael Noyes They already got reparations lol 3rd generation got free education and money to repair what happened from Germans and the U.S lol

    2. @IAMBUN BUN I think you mean nationality. 😅 by the way I started a conversation on this post b4 you did, so who really is the troll?

    3. @IAMBUN BUN 10 trillion in wealth? There were what like 4 million slaves total. You want me to work the math for you?

    4. @Michael Noyes Are we making native Americans pay reparations for their slavery as well? Or just the tribes that joined with the Confederacy? How about the American freed slaves for their slavery of liberians? What about the metric ton of African Americans who were slave owners? Do they have to pay?

  1. They do not always have the answers when u demand them .And the media needs to be pushed back at times also when u going to stop talking about trump

    1. Cast not yet pearls before pack hunting gluttons…
      “…Have the answers when you demand them…
      😂
      identity theft…
      Eight billion cars, not including those produced and left to rust away in some field, city after city after city, nothing more than hubs for materialism and greed all the while the collected masses clamoring over one another to get ahead. Rat racers playing survival of the sleaziest. I’m defending a junk yard.
      How’s that for your answers?
      I’m happy to be “blind.”
      It’s not a curse, it’s a blessing.
      Pack hunting gluttons
      Get behind me.

    1. @Black Queen yep! Cause we gotta listen to your racism day in n day out. Your lies , your fake Smollett hoaxes, n At some point people don’t wanna hear it anymore n sling right back at ya

    2. @Black Queen I’m sorry you think I should go to work every day just to give even more of my paycheck away to you and millions of others that doesn’t deserve it so you don’t have to work I can tell you this you or anyone else will not get one red cent from me it will be a cold day in July so NEVER I DON’T OWE ANYONE ANYTHING I DON’T CARE WHAT COLOR YOU ARE PERIOD END OF STORY.

    3. @Black Queen Hi my dear 😃👋. I may not support reparations, as I think that other measures can be taken to build everyone up, but I totally understand where you and many others come from on the issue. I wish you all my best 😌🙏.

    1. @Jan Coley she makes a lot of money though.
      She reps a special interest group.
      They get these million dollar contracts to push Polly agenda via public broadcasting.
      Pathetic.

  2. After looking at the comments……somebody has to be padding those “up votes”……huh YouTube…..🤔🤔🤔

    1. @Peter Griffin you tube is owned by Google. And we all know Google is a woke/left wing corporate giant so get your facts straight.

    2. Or maybe most people don’t get furious at the thought of reparations because you’re a reactionary. Just liked the vid.

    1. Or for every us citizen for one thing or the other ..where do you stop .pay the Native Americans first. And then the Japanese then then then where does it stop..you can keep moving the line.this dude has got to go

    2. They didnt die to free the slaves but save the Union. Freeing the slaves was just a bonus by defeating the democrats.

    1. @Nathan Wilcox anything is possible with this dude. Do not put it past him. He just undid Trumps orders to keep china from accessing our power grids. We are screwed.

  3. I’m British and my Celtic ancestors were enslaved by Roman legions. I demand reparations from the Italian government at once
