Along with reparations, we could also request to be paid for the insurance collected on our ancestors after they were deliberately and intentionally killed (for insurance money). We could request for interest and penalties on our overdue reparations- just like the interest and penalties that THEY put on overdue money- like the interest THEY put on a home loan, on a home that you have paid 4 to 5 times over before you finally “pay it off”.

I'm Choctaw Native American, a few thousand Natives of the Five Tribes used to own slaves, most of the Tribes and Nations of these Tribes made slavery legal. But our Tribal Nations made emends through cash and land reparations via 1866 treaty - lands such as Black Wall Street sat on is allotted tribal land reserved for Freedmen, but the community was destroyed by white mobs and the state of Oklahoma. You owe the Freedmen of Oklahoma for all the land stolen, property damage and Freedmen you displaced, as well as the Blacks who migrated to Freedmen lands to live the American dream. Other Five Tribe members and many other Tribes and Natives were allies of escaped slaves - they provided alliances, acceptance and citizenship. Native America became a refuge for runaway Black Slaves. The Five Tribes and other Natives made amends, why can't the USA? It's time to make amends United States to decadents of slaves, jim crow, land theft, redlining etc.. The USDA and other Departments stole 20 million acres from Black Farmers, you need to give their descendants and farmers land buy back programs.

This was one of those wonderful surprises when I watch Democracy Now. This evening in my opinion they broadcast a truly historical moment. The author, Nicole Hannah Jones, of The 1819 Project, was featured as she gave a speech to The United Nations. It was momentous occasion for Ms. Jones to say out loud what many of my generation have learned yet too many others don't know--how the slave trade came to North America. More so, she presented strong evidence as to why there should be reparations for the descendants of African slaves. I have now bought her book to read in greater detail why it frightens so many Caucasians in this country so much to hear the truth that is within these pages. This publication of this book was the catalyst for the fear and total misunderstanding of Critical Race Theory. She was eloquent and evocative. I only wish that she had taken her gloves all the way off as she stood on this global stage to speak in greater detail of the evil violence that permeated the slave states. (I have recently learned that even NY is amongst one of the states that wished to succeed.) This was a moment in history on this grand stage to tell the world about pregnant slave women being hung and their fetus ripped out of them or how chopped heads of slaves who attempted to escape were put on poles and lined city streets to put fear into other slaves. She spoke of the slave ships but did not verbalize how slaves were packed in the bottom cabins of ships, chained, sleeping amongst the excrements of one another. There were horrid deeds that justify the need for reparations. There is more and worse in this awful period of history. This truth is trying to be burned and forbidden in many schools. Yes, it was inhumane. However, if this nation does not learn and face this history and atone for this brutality, this barbarism, it will simmer and possibly come to a boil that will... I believe in the power that is within Education. Let us all learn that every human being is worthy of respect.
