I Wants My Reparations Now!

I agree with you Chung. This is not remotely close to the John Carlos, Tommie Smith demonstration at the 68 Olympics event though their Black Power Salute raised some political hackles Then again, that was still in the middle of the Civil Rights movement. Originally Posted by chefnerd

Reparations NO. This generation is not responsible for what happened back then. Teach this in school along with the insanity of the internment of Japanese-Americans in WWII. It was pure racism in both instances and in actuality the teaching of this part of Critical Race Theory but some have been so brain-washed as to attack it. Originally Posted by chefnerd

why was that insane? you do know that Japanese spies were found to be at Pearl Harbor spying yeah? yeah .. they were. does that mean FDR shoulda thrown poor little George Takei into an interment camp? YEP. why? why not? even the possibility that a Japanese spy would commit an act of terrorism was real.


what if FDR had not done this and some Japanese spy blew up Hoover Dam? what would you or history say then?


is it possible such an attack DID NOT happen because FDR threw them all into camps? we'll never know.



btw the "sneak attack" at Pearl was not supposed to be a sneak attack. it was supposed to coincide with a simultaneous "declaration" not quite of war but a cessation of relations between Japan and the US. close enough. but the final part of the communique that the Japanese ambassador to the US was supposed to deliver to the White House at the exact same time as the attack at Pearl.


technical issues and translation issues delayed it.


do you consider FDR a great president? he was a great president. and the worst president. during the 1930's FDR was the WORST president of the 20th century. PERIOD. his New Deal was a Joke. it actually delayed economic recovery to the great depression. a JOKE.


he was a great Commander in Chief because he knew nothing about the military and thus let the real Generals and Admirals run the war. if Hitler had done that we'd all likely be speaking German right now.

reparations for slavery should be for former slaves who are now dead. no thanks to Andrew Johnson, he vetoed the 40 acres/mule bill. personally, manumission should've been included in that bill.


besides, theres not that much money for the descendants of former slaves. it'd be be around $600 billion (a rough estimate). 40 acres/mule is about $150,000 in todays dollars. if discharged, it'd be around $30,000 per slave descendant which I think is around 20 million out of 48 million free blacks.


a stronger case can be made for the black codes aka jim crow laws which ran in many southern states from 1885 to 1970. other non-southern states had it for awhile, eventually, they repealed many of those laws over time. on that issue, reparations has to come from state, county and local govt. Fed discrimination was limited to redlining banking and hiring discrimination.

it may have started as a legal theory in law schools. what was being taught in law schools is not the same thing that was currently being taught in public schools. it has been corrupted beyond recognition when they started pushing this into public schools.

it goes back centuries .. what is crt? the black race whitewashing their intra-racism against themselves by selling their own into slavery. where did the vast majority of slaves come from?



from their own tribal wars in Africa. at least 70% of all slaves were captured blacks from tribal wars. they weren't taken by whitey euros raiding the Ivory coast. that's the racist "woke" critical race theory today's media wants you to believe. nonsense and lies.


the real reason there will NEVER be reparations is the black race owes itself reparations and that is a fact.

Who cares if Gwen Berry snubbed The Star-Spangled Banner or not.

The people who are dismayed by this are the same people who crapped all over the Dixie Chicks for not supporting the Iraq War after 9/11.

This brouhaha is nothing more than an excuse for political pundits and right wing politicians to gin up some moralistic anger over a lot of bullshit.

This is straight out of the Donald Trump playbook and too many people are falling into it's trap.

I accept your general thesis, but I care to an extent, because this Bitch is attempting to represent the US in the Olympics. This isn't Kaopernick taking a knee. And she made a crazy accusation of being set up. She should be proud of her hatred, instead of blaming others. I would respect her slightly, if she refused to represent the US.. Don't try to qualify, refuse admittance to the Team. Represent Nigeria, or some other Country you more closely align with.

So what Klan are you with?
Fully believe in reparation but there is a catch. You get your check and then get on the boat to where ever you came. Can't have it both ways.
