Whether if you agree or not black Americans are owed reparations

Black Americans who are descendants are owed reparations not just from slavery but for the following: Jim Crow, redlining, inhumane experiments for war, inhumane experiments that were used to further medical practices, forced sterilization burning down our towns, racist propaganda in school books, the CIA causing the crack epidemic, and lastly giving reparations to former slave masters.

Not all black Americans. Only the ones who were directly harmed. Otherwise its stupid, its like me wanting reparations from England for the persecution of Irish Catholics in the 1600's

@sunsporter1649 Tired argument, and last I check the government didn’t implement 100 years of racially motivated laws to keep the Irish from having a foothold in America that had long lasting economical effects
