If you want people to drop the best candidate because they don't support reparations :heh:
Donating today and will keep volunteering :manny:
This.


Politics is bollocks. However, disrupting the consistent bullshyt with a somewhat revolutionary candidate who, although not fully aligned, but more aligned than any other candidate with views we share...should still be high priority.

Is Hillary for reparations? If not, than the issue shouldn't be something to NOT vote for Sanders for.

I don't know if it could happen now.

But if they paid us our dues when they were promised, we'd be looking at a totally different black american population.

Yet last year Jews got $15 billi in reparation money by the united states.... what a unicorn huh?
the last 8 years, a Biracial Black man by the name of BARAK OBAMA was President... unicorn huh?

nikkas like you :bustback:
Why in the hell is this being paid out by our government because as far as I know the Holocaust took place in Europe and was not perpetrated by the US unlike slavery

Wait, one article says "$12 million", then the poster claims "$15 billion".

$12 mil is NOTHING for the American government. And that would be like 25 cents for every Black person in America, so we better not be complaining about someone getting a measly $12 mil. All sorts of programs related to Black people get more funding than that all the time.

Now, $15 billion, we're starting to talk about a little bit of real money right there. Even though reparations-wise it's still a drop in the bucket and wouldn't make much difference in anyone's life. But I'm guessing that number is made-up bullshyt.

The only people exposing themselves are those without brain.

Exactly.

Anyone bringing up Japanese Americans and Jews didn't make it beyond high school.
Such egregious oversimplification going on in here. People are comparing blacks to Jews in here. Jews breh:mindblown:!!!
Do y'all know why Jews were targeted in the first place, because they were the only religion that didn't condemn usury (except with other Jews!). Pick up a fukking book

That's why I'm apathetic when it comes to politics. I see it as a damn show. I don't even pay it no mind because I know ain't no real shyt coming out of it that's meant for black folks. It's all a damn show.

Idiots thinking they're having a serious discussion talking about voting for the lesser of two evils who's best interest AREN'T for black folks slay me. The day I watch TV and see a nikka like Khalid Mohammed runnin for president is the day I'd take politics seriously. Obama and them other nikkas are just puppets. Hell, I believe most of the shyt that go down isn't even in the hands of the prez but the puppet masters.

Bernie Sanders' campaign is funded by people and voters, not corporations. He's in nobody's pocket unlike 99% of other politicians

Ask how those cheques in the mail have worked out for Native Americans. It's also been done for Native Americans in Canada and in Australia for Aborigines. Their communities are some of the worst shyt holes to this day.

Giving people just money doesn't help, there needs to be some plan Throwing money at a problem does not help.

Reparations are completely unrealistic for black people. We would be talking about trillions of dollars. Imagine all the mixed race people with 3% African blood trying to claim the money or the cacs that are going to pretend to be black. It's just not going to happen.

No blacks do not need reparations for slavery, I agree. He answered that correctly and whoever asked that should have been specific. If asked if reparations should be given for the systematic mistreatment, disenfranchisement and genocidal practices, namely legislation, that blacks have been subjected to present day America. I would like to hear that answer.

They are kind of one in the same, breh.

I understand what you're saying but there really wasn't a break in the nexus connecting slavery pre-emancipation and indentured servitude, lack of rights and "slavery by another name" being over charged crimes and labor sentences.

This is a very good read that expounds on the topic of how slavery still existed, in principle and ideology, after emancipation. .
