If you look at the image you will see various settlements from the USA along with other countries for the crimes committed against a particular group or race of people EXCEPT African American..... So what say you ? Do you think its time USA cut that check ? I don't see anything wrong with it.

Holocaust reparations were not paid by America. There have been several attempts made in the past to pay reparations for slavery, but somebody always did something to stop it and nobody has been able to come to any agreement on how it should be paid

@LoriAMoore I hear your points HOWEVER Federal Government was involved with Jim Crow so US Govt had involvement with discrimination against brown people. As far as proof goes I say find the proof you can find and work with that.
@cupkitties What proof do you have that the US Government tried to atone for Slavery and Jim Crow ?

@compbabygirl I haven't mentioned the US government. I'm not sure if you grew up here in the states, but that is something most of us should remember from history class. Remember "40 acres and a mule"? If not, look it up. There were also other bills that were introduced demanding payment for ex slaves and to punish the church for encouraging slavery, but those were also ignored. The information is readily available online.

I don't think another MLK leader is going to do it this time. I think we need to speak their language this time around unfortunately....
