Always trying to get something for nothing. Slaves were freed in 1865. Over a hundred and fifty years to get their sh*t together - many have. Why should the rest of us pay for someone else's bad choices generations in the making. This is not justice, it's theft.
The ones that freed the slaves was the West African Squadron of the Royal Navy, over 1500 sailors and marines died stopping this trade.
It was from 1808 until 1856 and the UK had to pay the slavers an immense amount of money for taking away their profits. This payment lasted until 1975 and its not known who got the money.
reparations for slavery in america is racist. the descendants of peasants from europe and other places are supposed to be forced to pay this because why? the color of their skin? racist.....
The government of gibbs. Let me state. YOU WERE NEVER A SLAVE, AND PRETENDING WILL NOT MAKE YOU ONE. Tell this to the millions of soldiers who died for humanity for their fellow human beings. You grew up privliaged in your perceived victim hood, and told you were less. Lift the blinds from your eyes and see. You are a tool used for division.

The guy is waiting to steal some of those funds.
No doubt. Looking for a windfall lottery win paid for by taxpayers whose families never owned slaves.
Definitely.
The money should go to the Republican descendants of those who freed the slaves. Especially the ones that died or were wounded.

Cool. A nice piece of the puzzle that I had never heard about. 🐸🐸
"Slavers" kek, that's a new term for them. Look up who owned every ship bringing slaves to America.
The ones that wear small hats
I would agree.
Love this flip on reparations
I have never owned a slave and You have never been a slave. I Owe You NOTHING.
So do half black people write a check to themselves?
Right.
And yet they will raise taxes to pay for it.

It's quite a stretch for sure.
Duh, Asian and Irish descendants owe cash to Anthony Johnson's descendants because of skin color.
bigot....
I'm guessing he got an economics degree from a CA school.
Same old critical theory BS.
A crook waiting on the wing to traffick those money.
A “Quality” leering experience.
Maybe he got his degree from the learing center
I am sure he did. LOL
You just told every non black member of the state why they should not vote for you.
Smart, isn't it?
Who owned the slave ships, who ran the slave auctions?
Maybe they should talk to them, or would that be antisemitic?
More like the cost of rioting, gang violence/activity, snap and welfare..and whatever else I'm forgetting.. totals $14 trillion...
Where’s my 40 acres, where’s my mule?
LOL
Did anyone think to ask him how he was going to fund this little proposal?
You think those who is hoping for cash would?
Where's he getting that crazy number from?
Heck if I know. Sorry. I am not that smart.
Pandering fool.
Waiting for his big pay out.

He is welcome to go to the cemetery of his choice and obtain "reparations" from the people who actually owned slaves.
If they deducted the welfare costs and deducted costs of all the bad behavior by descendants of slaves, they would OWE trillions.
