It'll be gone in a year.

Could you imagine all the Ferrari's and Lambo's being purchased.

this is c00n talk. I know I wouldn’t waste mine. Would you waste yours? Are you even eligible?

We should also be tax free for 7 generations aka 400 years.

No dollar amount will ever be enough where it regards da liberation of my people. It's purely delusions or grandeur to believe that these o'fays are givin' Black folks reparations. Like, that shyt is laughably delusional.

Hypothetically speaking, if they did, what would be next??? All would be forgiven cause these saltines cashed out??? fukk all that. Can't put a dollar amount on liberation. A lot of that shyt would go right back in da pockets/hands if da very same peckerwoods that folks claim to despise and that's bein' all da way real about da shyt.

And the US owes every black person a apology for slavery, but we not going to see that either

First post concern trolling.

Who needs an antagonistic white populace when we got nikkas like this?

The inability to agree on a number is why it's not happening. No middle ground between "too low" and an unrealistic total.

 

[How Sway?]

AFRAM population = ~41 million
Reparations = $350,000
Total = $14,350,000,000,000 USD (14 trillion)

for comparison: the cost of afghanistan and iraq are a combined $4.3 trillion
The US national debt is $30 trillion

one more thing:
Thanks to republicans, over the next 25 years, $73 trillion dollars will be passed from one generation of the top 1.5% to the next.

Taxing just 35% of that wealth would pay for reparations and MORE.

Amerikkka ain't paying us back for sh1t...ever

I remember her. She has spoken with the Be The Power crew often.



There was some disagreement between her and the ADOS ATL chapter. They wanted her to focus on winning a seat in the State Legislature where she would have a better chance than the U.S. Senate.
But she keeps pushing the Reparations ball forward so hopefully she can bring some heat to Warnock.

Yea, I actually agree with ADOS ATL. It’s going to be hard for her to get senate here.

It’ll be hard, but she has my vote. No one said the fight would be easy, but if it’s something that I feel is important, then I’d be doing a disservice not voting for the candidate that actually says she’s for them and will fight.

Bullshyt… they owe us more than that!

I donated to her 2020 run. She was pushing the Reparations message out in rural white areas as well as areas with more ADOS folks so I'll give her credit for really being boots on the ground.

I like this and like other breh said backpay.

 

[Heretic]

Could you imagine the inflation that would come behind this?

 

[Family Man]

They ain’t lying and frankly that a conservative number on the low end…

imagine black folk getting our $350,000 from the US gov and getting the fukk out of this god awful country.. It will be glorious

That money would flow right back to where it came from.
