A poll taken by my alma mater Marist College says 58 percent of African-Americans favor reparations for slavery and other historical injustice. Just 8 percent of white Americans support reparations.

Millions of white people in America were harmed by the Civil War when their ancestors died in the conflict that freed the slaves. To demand their tax dollars for reparations today or those of any contemporary American is unjust -http://www.bor.com/n/aytbod

Who were they fighting against again?

People who wanted to continue the institution of slavery. It COST about 700,000 American lives. The ONLY nation to have resolved the issue by warfare. Meanwhile slavery continued, and continues, in other parts of the world.

Were they forced into the situation that brought about their demise? Because slaves were forced into slavery.

The answer is more straightforward. From reparations must be deducted the cost of the civil war, desegregation, social assistance, welfare and other benefits. The result would still be a negative sum... In other words, reparations means forgiveness of black debt. Drop itpic.twitter.com/fw0WV5Kxgr
