This shyt is so dumb. I'm just tired of the stupidity -- and trying to make things difficult - when it's really not.
You and your ancestors have to be classified as Black, AA, Negro or Colored - at-least 10 years prior on the Census.
Which is RACE - but it is also based on ethnicity -- which is Black American/AA/ADOS - 90% of the Black People in this Country.
And you have to be a descendant of the enslaved in Colonial and Antebellum era Chattel Slavery -- which is LINEAGE.

Eligibility for reparations should have two criteria. First, individuals
would have to establish that they are indeed descendants of persons formerly
enslaved in the United States. Second, individuals would have to establish
that at least 10 years prior to the adoption of a reparations program they
self-identified as ‘‘black,’’ ‘‘African American,’’ ‘‘Negro,’’ or ‘‘colored.’’ This
would preclude persons who have lived as white, thereby benefiting from
white privilege, suddenly claiming a black identity to access reparations
(Darity and Frank, 2003:327).
