It's funny how the beneficiaries of wealth through slavery and the people who support them don't want the descendants of slavery to get any retribution. We've always been told that the is country supports truth and justice. Where is our justice? We can remember the Alamo, Pearl Harbor, and 911 but not evil of slavery. People are wondering why black folks are angry, it's because we are tired of constantly getting a foot up our ass and told to just deal with it. Everbody can get justice but us?

There are several Americans who want to forget what happened in the past and just move on. They want to mitigate slavery and keep pertinet evidence for reparations a secret. There are some people who call Black Americans whiners and complainers but if these events happened to your people what would you do? We can remeber the Alamo, Pearl Harbor, 911, but forget slavery and its aftermath in Black America. That's insane. You can't hide the truth forever. Recognize realize apologize & socialize.
Black Americans as a people have been shut out from acquiring wealth either forcibly or through the law. There were a multitude of evil acts and terrorism committed against blacks in America to keep us away from prosperity. I am a descendent of the effects of those evil acts while my white coutnerparts are the beneficiaries of the wealth that was obtain by those evil deeds. This is why race relations is a touchy subject in America. Going into will uncover a plethora of truth that needs revealing

When the topic of reparations came into question I believed that there were some grounds to stand on due to slavery. Recently I stumbled upon a documentary called "Banished" by Marco Williams, I heard the story about Black Wall Street in Tulsa OK., I now peonage. I really believe that this country as a whole should look at the injustices that were done to Black Americans and what continues to happen to us. Everything has a history and our present condition is directly related to these events.
