The only people in this country that have tried implementing any form of reparations on a state level is democratic politicians, republicans have been open and brazen about their disrespect for black people and strong opposition to any form of reparations or help to black people, it was the republicans who overturned affirmative action because black folks where getting into colleges and universities. The truth is reparations on a national level is simply a pipe dream and not realistic. Why? The 6-3 right wing republican supreme court would declare as unconstitutional any racial or lineage based federal policy, the republican judges on the federal courts already blocked biden when he wanted to give funds to black farmers exclusively, this would have no chance in court with this current right wing conservative supreme court
