BET founder Robert Johnson calls for $14 trillion of reparations for slavery

[Houston911]

About 370 thousand per person


Don’t really know if that’s good or bad. I’d prefer free access to schools, housing subsidies, free transportation, and money specifically set aside for black home ownership and business development... but good for him for speaking up

Man fukk that

Programs like that always get robbed with administrative bullshyt

Give us our money and let us decide what to do with it

If people are stupid enough to waste it on bullshyt then so be it

I could make 300k last for life.....

what would you do?

That means every black person would get around 376K. That wouldn't change the wealth disparity between whites and blacks, but that would be a nice life changing sum.

White people, to include even the most Progressive cacs would not let this go down without a hell of a fight. If it does not benefit them too (Universal Health Care, Higher Minimum Wage and Student Debt Elimination), they are not going to support it. Very few politicians (Mary Anne Williamson and Tom Steyer) actually support reparations for descendants of slavery, and the same applies to the cac general populace. They do not want us to receive what is owed to us, if it does not benefit them too. This is why I don't fukk with any politicians (GOP, DNC, etc.) and why I don't really trust cacs at all.

That comment section





BET founder Robert Johnson calls for $14 trillion of reparations for slavery

I don't even want to read them. I made a promise to myself that I would stop reading comments on Twitter, Youtube, Yahoo, etc. Reading those comments ruins my mood and mindset. It's all anti-Black rhetoric, trolls, gaslighting and negative energy.



I really just don't like Cacs. Liberal Cacs, Conservative Cacs, Leftist Cacs, Alt-Right Cacs, ANTIFA Cacs, Tea-Party Cacs, Hipster Cacs, Country Cacs, BernieBro Cacs, MAGA Cacs, Rich Cacs, Poor Cacs.

They're different, yet they're all the same. They can not be trusted, no matter what umbrella they may fall under. I keep it professional and cordial with Cacs and keep it moving. Nothing extra. The sooner that you brehs realize this, the better.

I'm ashamed of that typo that I had in that sentence. I've corrected it. The shyt's embarrassing. You get the point though.

Who exactly would be administering this 'financial education'?

14 trillion? That shyt doesn’t even make sense. nikkas just throwing out random numbers

 

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

I got worried for a second there. Thankfully "WE" have a monopoly on the reparation discussion. Bob Johnson hasn't gone thru the proper channels and "WE" aren't here for it

14 trillion? That shyt doesn’t even make sense. nikkas just throwing out random numbers

Makes a hell of a lot more sense than $200-500B but thecoli was loving that idea

it doesn’t. That’s not even a serious discussion. That’s 3x what the fiscal budget is for every year...And you think they’re going to write a check totaling $14 trillion...not happening

 

[Hiphoplives4eva]

I told yall here they come. Went from "yall need to stop beggin" to "all black ppl deserve a check"

These people will shamelessly latch on. The only way is a family history trace or else they'll just try to camouflage and blend in

All black people are being victimized by white supremacy not just ADOS. Stop it. ADOS only group that deserves reparations, but civil rights are for everybody. fukk outta here with this self centered way of thinking.
