We the descendants of slaves in America have not wealth collectively. No, disrespect to the small numbers of Brothers and Sisters who have wealth. But the sprinkling of wealth individual does nothing for majority Black folks. Who don’t have any money compared to white Americans. It would take 246 years to catch with them. It’s not going happen. We have legacy of being bottom castes in this country America. Every immigrant groups has more money than we do collectively. I applaud Robert Johnson for his honesty and unadulterated truth in advocacy for his people Americans Descended of Slavery. America owes debt. And as MLK said “We’re coming get our check.”

Stop being created fictional characters of that created fairytale SLAVERY story, And please know that BLACK is a colour not person's/ppl. So stop being non existent person's/ppl

There are people(Some uninformed, Some willfully ignorant/dismissive) who oppose black Americans receiving reparations even if it will not directly effect them personally or financially, which makes my people believe they are afraid of giving us True Freedom & the right to participate in the American Dream/Economy. We have experienced life at the bottom of a caste system for generations so we understand what it's like & would never leave any Non-Black or Non-Descendants of American Slavery behind. We are American Patriots as well & our wealth would not only lift our communities but it would also lift ALL of our society to establish the United States of America as the leading economy/society model for centuries to come.

Human Beans, This is a question for Caucasians here.: If a Black man drove his car into your ancestors 40 years ago and five of your ancestors died in the accident that was the Black mans fault because he was drinking and doing illegal drugs.The Black man lived and thrived. Would you take him to court and sue him for reparations/damages he did to your ancestors? Of course you would, unless you were mentally ill. Now when you are in court the Black judge asks the Black man who killed your family what does he think he should do to make things right by you? He says give them a new house, car, and ten thousand dollars. Would you be happy with that? Or would you think you deserve millions more? Anyway I'm tired of hearing what Whites think they should do. You never allow the guilty party to decide what punishments should be given to the party that was harmed. You all need to sit down and learn about what happened and let us make the financial decisions. You won't be hurt at all if the judge awards some of us who can prove our ancestors were here before 1865 and enslaved. Are you hurt by all the billions America is giving to Ukraine? Are you hurt by the 4 billion America gives to Israel for GOD knows what? Of course you wouldn't be your financial would remain the same or increase as we buy new cars, homes from you. We don't want your pale, pasty, looking, wrinkled females. I like my women to be Black or Brown, not Albino looking. Some Indian tribes are receiving up to 60K per person in the home, tax free every month. Qualified Black people should be receiving at least that much since our holocaust lasted 250 years, between 12M and 20M people were destroyed; not 10M like the Jews, or perhaps 375T like the Native Americans. If this doesn't happen soon stop calling yourselves Christians. Everyone in the King James from Jesus to Moses was an African person. White people are not mentioned anywhere in the oldest, most accurate KJV. GOD will likely send those of you with hatred for us straight down to Hades where you will suffer until the end times. It doesn't have to be that way. It's your choice. Heaven, or the hot p[ace where you will get a nice tan. ImHotep

You hit the nail on the head. I know someone who has been forever trying to own their own business but doesn't have anyone who would invest in him or even care about his dreams, especially if you live in the wrong state, where WS are all around, plus certain people can own a business in a common wealth state #Theyhavethismonopolythinggoingon,wow how can you stand up to those who are pressing people of color.

I totally concur with Mr. Johnson assessments about Reparations and this countries attitude.BTW to those persons talking about Self Made, no such creature.God is our creator and he's on the side of Moral Justice!

[@daleprothro4013]

Let's make sure our younger generation understand why Reparation is important and necessary for this country to have a true moral foundation and economic equity within the next 30 to 40years....This country needs to Atone for it's Sins of the past and present..I agree, too many of us are in Mental slavery..Bury Wille Lynch.....Are whoever stays in the way of our total liberation....

That sounds great. But it was united 🐍 of. America. That put us in this boiling pot of water. So they should be the ones to get us out of it. Cut the check.

[@gavrielayashraalah531]

Yes, that should happen as well but the Reparations still need to be paid for the continuous slavery (13th Amendment), Jim Crow, share cropping (Black Farmers), convict leasing, redlining, School to Prison Pipeline, etc.......

Where is additional information on the grant program proposed by Mr. Johnson?

I thinks the money should be put back into a bureau. The Freedmen Bureau should be brought back so it can be banks. A portion of land in most every state to start business and live.

In this ERA of EVERYONE speaking their truth.. here's mine: To say that you were fortunate to be successful, and not give HONOR to THE MOST HIGH is not only SHAMEFUL. but VERY DISRECTFULLY DISAPPOINTING. The CREATOR (AHAYAH ASHAR AHAYAH 'GOOGLE IT') is not a RESPECTER of PERSONS (WEALTHY OR NOT), and neither am i. They don't acknowledge him, which is the VERY same reason they don't lift black communities across this nation out of poverty using their SELF ADMITTED, business savvy, in CLEAR illustration of LOVERS OF MONEY, RATHER THAN LOVERS OF AHAYAH. Notice how he gives reverence to the MAN who invested in him, in full submission, and humility...because of MONEY...#SHHHHH #AP2TMH

[@Theo-eq3ei]

Did Bob Johnson sell BET because the original need to the black community of a network like BET went away, or did he sell it to make himself a billionaire? I'm trying to understand the motivation of why so many black owned businesses which profess to be serving a greater need than themselves eventually turn the reigns over and away from the black community.
