    Colleges are opening a new front in the debate over reparations for the descendants of U.S. slaves. Georgetown University and two theological seminaries with ties to slavery have committed funding.http://apne.ws/JRzbAl3

        As someone with Neanderthal DNA in me, I demand reparations from Homo sapiens for exterminating my ancestors! That’s how this works right?

        We dont fail. We just dont have the luxury of the headstart and generational wealth that you have plus overcoming barriers that continue to exist today. Fact is you cant compete on a level playing field with us. That is why your ancestors ended Reconstruction. You know what it is

        I’m thinking that the descendants of Cochise and Sitting Bull should be looking to engage lawyers for terrorism and loss of real estate

        Well then sign me up. Mine & Barak Obama's 10th great grandfather was the 1st known black, legally bound lifelong slave in America John Punch/Bunch. Shouldn't be an issue they I'm white cause after all...he wasn't.

        And not to forget the African elites who uniquely actually sold their subjects into slavery. And their successors. Of course.
