Reparations: Zimbabwe Signs A $3.5 Billion Compensation Deal With White Farmers

[TheDream]

The only mistake Mugabe made was not preparing black Zimbabweans to run large modern commercial farms. The whites should have been forced at gunpoint to train the Zimbabweans.

Also guys please don't underestimate the role of a strong agri sector in an industrualizing economy

The issue wasn't about the locals not knowing how to farm. The issue was Mugabe is corrupt maggot that gave the land to his cronies instead of locals who would of used it for it's intended purpose.

Zimbabwe was basically screwed till they caved into the cac. They even tried to promote China to no avail. Once Gaddafi died, so did pan-Africanism in Africa. You need real money and power for this shyt to work.

I can’t see any Asian county doing this....for history buffs please point to a non-black country which gave there resources to foreigners and allow them to control 100 percent of the shares after colonization. 2020 and still going fukking backwards. This is how Africans remains the poorest people on the planet

Asian countries don't have to bow down to cacs like Blacks do globally. We should know as Black Americans. Asians don't have to do shyt here that we have to do. Let's stop acting as if this is a choice. Your people can starve or you can give us what we want and we will give you jobs, economic freedoms, to feed the youth. They don't play fair and you have no allies.

Zimbabwe is a western puppet now after Mugabe died. He held it down but didn’t groom a successor to carry on his anti-west policies.

It's easy for us Americans to say playing by the white man's rules this but their youth employment rate makes Black Chicago look like Silicon Valley. The cac don't play fair and you have NO allies.

Couldn’t you say the same about African Americans

You can say the same about Blacks all over the world.

Well, I kinda expected this. Just like the UK pressured Museveni to give reparations to the Asian Ugandans who had property and businesses expropriated by Idi Amin, they stepped up and put the pressure on Mnangagwa. Of course, they would never give reparations for the foul shyt they did in Africa not even 50 years ago.

Not great, but we need to think long term. $3.5B is a lot for a country not Zim but not a tremendous sum like Haiti got fukked with by France. They don't want to hurt Zim too bad. They wanted to send a message, to South Africa most of all that land reparations won't be tolerated by the "international community".

But they couldn't get too greedy since China is in the background and they want to slowly break that relationship and get their hands on the real prize--platinum. Like many wealthy farmers in the world, Zimbabwe's White farmers probably see their kids go work in other jobs or the US/UK/Canada. Long term that land could slowly filter back to Black Zimbabweans.

Zimbabwe needs to plan. Plan to get young Blacks into light manufacturing agriprocessing that can divert wealth from the farms to the Black population. In a developed economy, most of the value is extracted in higher value goods. If they plan and build right, the Whites can keep the farms and they can get Blacks into more lucrative sectors.

Yeah we got humiliated but worse, much worse, has happened. Zim can recover from this if they plan. Plan, plan, plan. It is the only thing that ever has worked and ever will work.

I don't think Black Zimbabweans will recover. I just think they will give enough jobs now that Zimbabwe won't be as hostile but it will still be fukked up. This was a really bad deal and honestly, Whites never wanted to leave that country and the weather it has.

Sadly they had no choice. It was either give those racist cacs reparations or become a poorer version of North Korea.

They are already a poorer North Korea as they have no allies while North Korea has China. They can't effectively run their gov't without an economy and the west had them by the balls like Money Mike and Damon.

The payment is very explicitly not for land compensation, but for non-land property on farms that were confiscated (so like if your house was on a farm that was confiscated, they will pay the farmer compensation for his house).

Who cares? Black people had everything taken from them and no one ever paid us back.

If it's that serious, why don't they just go back to what they were doing before the white man showed up? That's what most of Africa should do. Just start over and work with each other. Don't really have anything to lose at this point.

I dont care if you pay those racist british pieces of dog shyt off..as long as they stay out of Africa.

Bruh, starting from 0 takes much more time than getting help. Especially when you're in a country with no money.

You must not understand, the global system of white supremacy is the current system. It don't just work like, let's do things as we did before the white man because his system is imprinted all in your ish. Even in North Korea, it is. The only places not impacted by the white supremacists reject modern living in 2020. In order to go back to 1400, you gotta have 1400 power and allies which we do not have anywhere at this time.

Why don't Black Americans just start over and work with each other? You can't say things you don't even practice and if you tried you will quickly figure out why it doesn't work. I don't really understand why this is so hard for you to understand. The entire reason why African nations could be rebellious against the white supremacists was due to Gaddafi and being on his good side. You notice, since he died, Africa is a giant shythole with some potential for outsiders like you and me. Gaddafi was the most powerful man in Africa and carrying Pan Africanism since whites let him keep his wealth until they no longer wanted to anymore.

Worse than just no money, they are in extreme debt.

In April 2014, Chinamasa admitted that the country was heavily in debt and that the country needed to better attract foreign direct investment.[82] Officially Zimbabwe's debt is $7 billion, or over 200% of the country's GDP. However, this figure is disputed, with figures as high as $11 billion being quoted, once debts to other African countries and China are included.
