White slave owners received reparations but Black people never did

[Dr. Acula]

Yep....learned about this a while ago. Remember, Slaves were property to these people and their money makers. There was a lot of concern about what will happen to those poor plantation owners if they lost their major money making property and was used as a an argument against abolishing slavery. Politicians from the south and the north thought this was a sympathetic argument and worth considering.

Their main concern shouldn't have been becoming broke, but burning in hell and not being rightfully murdered by those they abused. Thankfully, these people did often end up destitute, especially after the war

I don't like how people will post something like this with zero sources.

Its widespread knowledge. So you can easily verify it independently among tons of other sources through a quick search.

Compensated emancipation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
First result.

On this topic, I would recommend everyone checkout the book called "Slavery By Another Name" and how many people fought to keep the perks of unpaid labor of black people after the civil war, including northern corporations. "Vagrancy" laws were used heavily after the war to imprison black people and then send them to work at various companies and places for basically free as "punishment". Vagrancy basically meant that you were walking the streets and you didn't have your papers stating you were employed. Of course this law was meant to be used against newly free black people and often times were a trumped up charge to get some free workers for folks.

edit: By the way I didn't mean "widespread knowledge' like "psh you didn't know that!? " as more the OP is safe to state this information without sources since its widely published and available. Not trying to be one of those dudes. I agree, everyone needs to know this information and its not surprising most people don't. This shyt isn't taught in school and you have to usually gain the knowledge through independent reading or in a deep level college course or something.

Everyone needs to know this

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

this is common knowledge, but also very demonic.

also use
Legacies of British Slave-ownership

to find out how much each slave owner got paid in compensation for having their slaves taken away, the site will also let you know where you got your slave name from.

I recently covered this within a university work. I will post it here for anyone to read.

This is how you make a post/thread.

Who the hell makes a thread based on what some chick on twitter says?

Especially one that has "gucci" in their name.

Almost everyone has received reparations except Black folks. Even the Boston Marathon victims received money.
