The amount of things our ancestors believed will not happen, did. It's an insult to their efforts to not demand reparations for what they suffered.I think the point is that no American politician will offer us reparations. That forming a political stance over something that will not happen is a foolish venture.
Or can keep hedging our bets on racist whites giving us money.
what would've been a better answer that doesn't cost her the election?
You're damn right I'm a democrat. If you are a republican why are you hounding democrats for reparations and not republicans? And if you're an independent then you should be hounding both not just democrats.
These negroes on thecoli are either scared negroes or democrats turn outs....Why didn't reparations pass in California? Gavin Newsome and the whole California Supreme Court is Democrats
Patricia Guerrero Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of California is a Democrat

Obama started babbling when asked about reparations too and y'all selected him twice.People who don't directly answer the question before talking through relevant and irrelevant streams of thought need to tell you all you gotta know.
An opportunity economy does not equate to reparations for a specific group of people, especially if those people are asking you about reparations.
"I mean let's talk about..."
We can ask Trump 'bout reparations, but Trump ain't gettin' a majority of the black vote.
Kamala is, and she's been dismissive towards the issues specific to black people during her 2020 run.
That debate was to rally women and black women. These 2 selective groups are fiends for propaganda and identity politics.Has either candidate taken a clear articulated position on ANYTHING
I wish the debate would have pushed Kamala to explain how she's going to implement some of the ideas from her platform like the grocery pricing stuff and the housing stuff
Anyway, back to reparations....it's getting to the point that ADOS Democratic voters are saying asking this question is disingenuous and an attempt to ruin the election for Democrats. If we're at that point where it's basically zero pressure on Democrats to even engage the topic then it's probably time to move on to another plan that they might actually consider. Like asking her for specifics around the stuff she's actually willing to speak about
Jill Stein is talking about Reparations and y'all ain't backing her.
absolutely. #BOTHSIDES none of them ain't shyt and that's why I'm #DONTVOTE
Address the studies.
She don't want to do it because she doesn't have to do it.Address the studies.
Wouldn't cost her the election to address the studies and say how it could be part of the opportunity economy she keep talkin' 'bout.
assuming you are black, why would a black candidate talking about reparations with black people cost her the election?
If policies specifically for black people to help black people are so dangerous they cost a candidate an entire election... that's probably a form of racism.
And that's probably a form of racism coming from... nonblack people.
What exactly is an opportunity economy in the land of opportunity?
We can check back and prove how black people have been economically deprived and how this deprivation allowed other groups the opportunity to economically benefit from black people... but reparations for black people will cost a candidate an election...?
I think this election will cost black people more than whoever loses.
This.
scared of numbers.
Let's be clear, the reparations discussion is going nowhere until black people organize from the bottom-up instead of top-down.
Not voting for her is not punishing her.
Go ahead and Demand it. I Demand Reparations too. That's different than getting it.The amount of things our ancestors believed will not happen, did. It's an insult to their efforts to not demand reparations for what they suffered.
Keep in mind, we are asking this of a woman who herself is descended from enslaved people.
