Only Black folk get random famous people to discuss socioeconomic impacts of our population instead of you know, the people that actually do politics, policy and economics for a living.

That's the point.

You must have not watched the hearing. They had a couple of economists, politicians, a writer (Coates actually did the best representing the case), and even a white lady from a slave trading family making the case FOR reparations. They did exactly what you mentioned. You obviously are not watching and just trying to create a narrative. Go look at the stickies thread on this. Almost no one is complainig except you idiots who obviously didn’t watch.

She's complaining about virtually every person there and the fact that they're not her. Danny Glover, Coates, Jackson-Lee, NCOBRA, etc. Athletes aside, she wasn't gonna be satisfied. Nobody "knows enough" but her and who she co-signs. That's the real issue here.


Rather than celebrate this for the groundbreaking moment that it is, and making in roads to be invited for a future hearing, she's taking her usual 'scorched Earth' approach. Insulting people as if that'll make them want to invite her to anything.


You’re right

glad this discussion has officially started at the gov level so people can be put on record.

it will be interesting when they tie in all the corporations, banks, colleges, us gov entities, foreign govs like britian, and billionaire families that made their fortunes off slave labor. they all are culpable.

hell, all the building they're in right now was built by slave labor. capitol hill, white house, etc, all of them. some were rebuilt twice after the brits burned them down the first time.

for those of you who can, i recommend going to the national museum of african american history in dc. very sobering collection and celebration of our history.

coleman hughes tried to pull the "well some immigrants are black and they didn't go through slavery and their problems aren't from slavery".

this dude is horrible. :gucci:
Hughes is why it’s going to be hard to depend on “well off” AA’s/blacks in this fight. He admitted he’s “privileged”; Burgess as well, as he went through his family history.

Darity did get the invite. He was mentioned by Jackson at the beginning. Y’all are making yourselves look like fools by regurgitating talking points that you already had locked in without even watching the hearing.
