Yeah, I am for cash payments, all of it. As far as reparations, my grandmother was a slave. My great grandmother was a slave. Her mother was a slave. My mama was a sharecropper up until high school here in North Carolina. So yeah, I need my money.

My family came over from Greece in 1958 so my bloodline wasn't here then but I am an activist for equality. Dr. Martin Luther King was one of my idols. I think equality is important to fight for. I think no amount of money, if you get a check for like 500 bucks to say that that's gonna or even 5,000 bucks.

Some interesting things for you to look into, I don't know you might find them interesting, are the Redlining Act which was only outlawed in 1977. Also how freeways were placed in black neighborhoods to break up black neighborhoods. And then look up the Red Summer of 1919 and specifically Black Wall Street.

I can't imagine a check for $5,000 or $500 or whatever amount of money is going to compensate for what happened. I think putting a dollar figure to it is a slap in the face. We should be fighting for social and economic equality like Martin Luther King Jr.

I agree we should be fighting for socio and economic justice and the quickest way to make that right, not that it's going to wipe away the past, but the quickest way to make that right is to give black descendants of slaves a house, tax-free, paid off, no taxes, right? Because they've had their wealth taken from them over the years.

The question would be who would receive and who would be responsible for paying for it not all black people would get it for example Barack Obama Witten who would pay for in a 73% according to the Census Bureau 73% of Americans ancestors didn't come to United States until after the Civil War so would we expect like people to pay for it when they just got here in the 1900s

Well, I think it's in the title American Descendants of Slaves. So that's who gets it, Descendants of Slaves and who pays it, the U.S. government. because the US government is who profited radically from it.

Right when I was asking was how the government best to determine which black people are descendants of slaves in United States and the second part is which citizens will be responsible for paying we know government the check is going to come from the government what citizens would be responsible for paying this text blacks responsibility of whites and overcast and which white people would pay since almost 75% white people United States today answers in common to Latin sore

I think we should get it, but I saw the other day that the Africans and the Caribbean are fighting against the FBAs and ADOS getting recognized as an ethnic group so we can get reparations that way through lineage. And I just think that's fucked up. I know, you know, they should just go be mad at England or France or something and leave us alone.
