Black people that think reparations are impossible kill me...
Freeing slaves was supposed to be impossible and it happened...
The ending of Jim Crow and Black codes was supposed to be in impossible and it happened...
You are supposed to DEMAND IT...
And guess what...after they meet your demands, you demand more shyt...
If overwhelming majority of Black people would stop the defeatist attitude or the stupid pull yourself up by your bootstraps attitude and demanded reparations...and I ain't talking about checks...and shyt..
I mean social programs that target the fukked up wealth gap and achievement gap...and not shyt that blames Black people...
Do you nikkas understand in Brazil...Black people successfully got the government to guarantee...college in all public universities for Black people...and Brazil is way more racist than the USA by far...them nikkas never even had a civil rights movement...
Brazil Enacts Affirmative Action Law for Universities
RIO DE JANEIRO —
Brazil’s government has enacted one of the Western Hemisphere’s most sweeping affirmative action laws, requiring public universities to reserve half of their admission spots for the largely poor students in the nation’s public schools and vastly increase the number of university students of African descent across the country.
The law, signed Wednesday by President
Dilma Rousseff, seeks to reverse the racial and
income inequality that has long characterized Brazil, a country with more people of African heritage than any nation outside of Africa. Despite strides over the last decade in lifting millions out of poverty, Brazil remains one of the world’s most unequal societies.

AA's need to make demands of the government at all times...not just when shyt happens...we should constantly be demanding and connecting our struggles to other Black groups...
Reparations are NEEDED...it's not a luxury...it's not some symbolic shyt...it is needed...cause there is no way...the African diaspora is gonna pull itself up...cause no fukking body in this world ever did that...
White people didn't do it...Asians didn't do it..and nor can we...
Everybody gets help by governmental institutions except for us....and when we ask for help...we get the..."Well do it yourself! We did it!" and that's not true...
Governments got money and giving it to everybody except us....
