People have been speaking about reparations in one form or another for decades.
I live in the UK and remember functions my dad took me to dealing with this topic back in the early 90s.
And that was the last time anybody talked about it
seriously. I remember bc i was at similar mtgs in Harlem. Since then, you couldn't get anybody
serious to even consider it without laughing in your face. How long did Conyers hr 40, sit there, unpassed and unloved? Literal
decades.
Yvette and Tone, no matter what you think of them, built up the current
movement cuz ncobra and them wasnt moving
shyt. They couldn't make an argument that would enflame the masses to then push our politicians to move on hr 40 (which, again, languished for
decades).
