A Check isn't enough for reparations

[Ezekiel 25:17]

What does a check get you? A house, education, decent car and that's it. And you not even gone get all the money at once How much does it cost to start up a small business that 1)Has a high change of failing 2)You won't see profits until a couple years in the game.


Land and discounted homes should be a major requirement with reparations.

doesnt matter the money is owed. You cant call up your utility company and say "this money isnt going to help you beat your competitor because they keep growing whole your company is shrinking you isut delaying the inevitable"

 

[I Really Mean It]

It’s a start, though. One thing at a time. Cut that check.

 

[Sbp]

Nah but its a start. Now pay us our fukkin money

I agree. The money will be gone so fast and a lot of people will be back with their hands out. The other things listed will have long term benefits. A lot of people just want a quick fix and can’t see the bigger picture

Soon as I get my money up I'm definitely taking some trips there. Coli got me hooked on some these African countries.

Who has advocated for solely a check?

 

[Blessings]

OP started another reparations discussion w/outdated and misinformation late into the 4th quarter...
No one advocated for solely a check.


Try again!

back with their hands out.

ya'll gotta stop using this terminology in relation to reparations

why ya'll think of so little of the decisions black people can make with money?

 

[Mr Rager]

Don't even bother OP. These myopic Coli militants don't want to hear common sense

Also, a lot of the stuff you all bring up won’t apply to all AA’s.

No matter what is said, not all of us wants or is even cut out to own businesses.

Not everyone wants to go to college or a university, or even cut out for that.

Tax exemptions? Majority of us don’t make enough for that to even be of effect.

Cash covers everyone. Some of these other things should most definitely be tacked on, but cash has to be included. As far as what is done with said cash, that is of no ones concern and nobody’s business. Also, those that say, “well when they give us reparations, they won’t take our complaints of racism!” Well, if and when all tide policy is implemented, white folks are going to say the same. In fact, you’ll have more than white folks saying it. “We all get free education, so what’s your excuse now?!?”

True, but it's better than bullshyt ass student loan relief

The key is we should get checks AND that other stuff just like the Jews. The check needs to be first and foremost. With enough cash, we can accomplish the rest. Don't let ANYONE downplay the importance of the money.
