500 acres?! That ain't enough for 40 million people. Do you know how big 500 acres is?
Reparations to leave the US and go to a place with worse accomodations/structure when our ancestors worked and died here and stayed? And we wouldn't be native to the place we go either so there will definitely be clashes with the natives of that land as well.

"This will be for the few black people who dont want to leave the country,but would still like to live one with nature. Living like indegionus black people did before colonization."
Out of 50 million black people in this country,how many do think actually want to live like this? When most of you cant even handle the "worst accomodations/structure" of "Africa"
Pretty sure 500 acres will be more than enough. Not to mention just because you want something doesnt mean you get it. Same stumbling block we will have with reperations. Rather than negotiate something that will benefit many black people. Too many wont be happy unless we all get checks. We would get far more progress with a chosen few/concentrated effort,rather than checks for all ,so no need to make that a requirement.
We were kidnapped,killed and stayed here to be more precise. Imagine where would we be if we decided to leave asap.
No need to get sentimental about ancestors now.
You can’t hijack something you’re not apart of.Please dont ever get it mistaken,im still a #BothSider
To the bolded: How's Liberia doing?
To the rest, reparations or something akin to it that will help redistribute wealth from the top to the poor/working/middle class that will greatly and positively impact Black people to the point of putting most of us into the middle class.
That is what reparations is supposed to do. Make a strong Black middle class.

Is Liberia a fair example? Do you believe if all black people had left,we all wouldve went on to try to become the oppressor and oppress natives?
If so,fine,maybe we werent ready to leave then do to our programming. Doesnt mean none of us are ready to leave today. You speak of these clashes with natives like thats a guarantee. I hope you arent implying oppressors are who we are inherently. Personally i believe it is within many of us as weve been programmed. Which is why i never say ALL black people need to leave. Some need to stay right here until we deprogram ourselves.
And @Tair ,this sista from Harvard did a study on the racial wealth gap.

Why The Racial Wealth Gap Is So Hard To Close
A new study shows the simple math of why — absent radical measures — America's racial wealth gap won't be closing anytime soon.www.npr.org
It cant be fixed without a drastic move as bold as 40 acres and a mule. Do you honestly believe a move that big can or will be made through reperations for ALL? You cant be serious about wealth building for black America if you subscribe to "checks for all".
Because i know for a fact you dont believe all black people are serious about wealth building,or have the financial literacy or discipline to do whats needed.
I was always apart of the party,just delegitimzed by agents. If black men built the Democratic party w/ white men,how could we not be apart of it? Same logic yall use for not leaving the country right? My ancestors built this party. We are taking it back![]()
We'd become Israel 2.0 if we went to some African country with reparations.
