I was in Tulsa commemorating 100 years since the Tulsa race massacre. If there is any misunderstanding about why reparations are needed, you can't have a better example than the massacre that took lives & burned down Black businesses. Don't you think reparations are fair enough?

Naturally the insurance companies refused to honor the victims' policies.

I believe reparations are in order, but I’d like to also know the details of what is proposed, if there are any solid proposals out there.

Slave owners got reparations. The reasons to provide reparations are both moral and good economic policy.

Yep, black folks need land and the power to make our oppressors leave us alone. That’s reparations.

No reparations! My family came to this country with nothing after barely surviving the Holocaust. They came in 1956, well after slavery. They studied and worked very hard for many years to succeed. Why should my taxes go to reparations?
