Friends often bring up that no Black farmers ever got their 40 acres and a muel, not even that.Kathy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18418720666849497808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1990338437877873686.post-25486348910845388412021-06-04T10:26:16.746-04:002021-06-04T10:26:16.746-04:00Reparations have been discussed for decades, but a...Reparations have been discussed for decades, but are now the hot topic of the moment in the US, what with the Tulsa Massacre centennial...among other things. How it plays out in this Congress is yet to be seen.

And much of its wealth was gotten from the blood and sweat of African peoples. <br />Much more is owed and there should be self-determination about how it's spent.<br />Glad that you brought this up. Reparations should be paid. And, here, too. It is an issue in the U.S., and is for many peoples around the world.<br />All of the wealthiest countries got rich from the labor of the peoples they colonized and the land and natural resources they stole -- gold, copper, zinc, etc.<br />Glad to see the interview will be available to watch.

But why did you invade in the first place? I don't get it.Kwei Quarteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00469765268067837660noreply@blogger.com
