Thoughts on white people having to pay slavery reparations?

@Heartlander that's an "inconvenient fact" that the history books like to overlook; Anthony Johnson, a black man from Iberia and former slave himself, was actually one of the earliest as well as the largest slaveowners in colonial America (he even had white slaves/servants)

Antoine Dubuclet was one of the wealthiest free black slave owners prior to the civil war, he owned 70 slaves; He also married a wealthy black slaveowner, Claire Pollard, who owned 44 slaves. His family were among the largest sugar plantation owners at the time, and the richest in Louisiana, the civil war destroyed his business (as well as most other sugar plantations). In 1990, Dubuclet was inducted into the Louisiana Black History Hall of Fame, he even has a statue/memorial

One of South Carolina’s most prominent black slaveowners was William Ellison Jr., a cotton gin maker and blacksmith who supported the Confederacy with sizeable donations and even had a grandson join the Confederate Army. In 1860, he was the largest slaveowner in the state, and owned more than 1,000 aces of land

(More than 3,000 freed blacks served in Confederate Army)

In South Carolina during the 1830s there were nearly 4,000 black slave owners.

@Heartlander I do not think you fully understand. It is not your fault, as the post is a straw man representation of what is really going on. Reparation does not involve "white people giving handouts to black people", as the racists on this website claim. It would involve the government using [i]everyone's[/i] tax dollars to make reparations to the descendants of freed slaves.
