“Reparations carries moral force... An inherent acknowledgment of a wrong that has been done- of a debt that is owed-and the willingness on the part of the people to pay it.” Marianne Williamsonpic.twitter.com/qHRWofeySc

Reparations isn't simply "amends" & "backpay" (slavery isn't "unpaid labor"), it's the unequivocal surrender of white institutional power, the dismantling of it's tools, & reclamation of foundational corporate & bank capital. There is no Reparation without the discussion of POWER
