That's how it's done: identify the debt. Identify the debtor. Identify the owner. Pay up.
Forcing innocent people to pay nonvictims for something that happened to neither of them is not reparations.
I have no sympathy for any American, black,white, yellow, color isn't my issue. Native American Indians were systematically executed by the U.S. Army if they failed to comply , and go to the reservation for the convenience of the government.
Juneteenth? I'm sorry, but it doesn't seem to be that important, especially if you can't remember what day it was!!!!
The wild buffalo was hunted to extinction, in order to starve the Native American Indians into submission. I'm a quarter Cherokee. Where's my money??
The bible? It's an eloquent story of faith. But going with that, where is my money. I'm a quarter Cherokee. My great grandmother walked the trail of tears on the way to prison. If that's not worthy of compensation, slaves aren't either
My great great great grandfather was an Irish slave who helped build the railroads in This Great Country. Where is my compensation???? This world is so f#&@$d up.
Christianity is supposed to be against the sins of the father
pathetic
What Reparations for Slavery? American Slave Trade is a curse on both the Colonizer and Captives alike, forever attached to blood tainted bounty and destroyed legacy with the aftermath of skewed/distorted history. More like the balancing of Americas Social Account, compensation owed to creditor, keep it business not emotions.. ADOS
“We can’t just carry on doing the easy thing here…â€ÂÂ
White people be like we donot like Putin but the seeds are the same. All white people are the seed of ESAU.  The bible said that ESAU was a red baby. This meant that you can see his blood through his skin. ESAU is the father of every white person on earth. ESAU was the oldest because he was the first born of his twin Jacob. However ESAU sold his birthright for a bowl of soup. And Jacob who name was changed to Israel received all the BLESSING of ELOHIM.  The clear describe ESAU GENERATIONS in revelation 3:17
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: because ESAU seed will perish into the LAKE of FIRE.  This is what ELOHIM says to Jacob who name was changed to Israel. Revelation 3:8  I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. We ISRAELITES will inherit ETERNAL life. The door that ESAU cannot get to is ETERNAL life. So ESAU is the seed of doom and Israel is the seed of ETERNAL life.  The so call jews of today's world are LIARS according to revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. Israel feet. The today's jews have been judge already. They are the synagogue of satan. Their final DESTINATION are the LAKE of FIRE. I for one will be happy! The TRUE JEWS ALL CAME OVER ON SLAVES SHIPS. DEUTERONOMY 28:68. BLACK AMERICANS AND EVERY BLACK PEOPLE WHO ARRIVE FROM SLAVE SHIPS ARE THE ISRAELITES.  OUR GOD IS BLACK ACCORDING TO REVELATION 1:13-14 said
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. Who is Babylon? America is that demon of Babylon. Revelation 18:2  And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. After black AMERICANS, the ISRAELITES the angel of ELOHIM will care out the orders of ELOHIM and America and all its works will be gone FOREVERMORE.  So the time is ticking and the white GENERATIONS will all perish into the LAKE of FIRE. It is already written. We win in the end and us black AMERICANS will inherit ETERNAL life.
Have a good day!

👉ðŸÂ½How much? 👉ðŸÂ½Good start at least.
What a beautiful soul. 😊ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ»💖
Any descendants accused of any felony should be void as they are criminals.. should cover about 90% of the population.. but sure pay those criminals for under 2 million total slaves that ever existed in America history.. and for asian pacific? the whites? the jews? basically every race ever in history has been slaves.. make amends my ass
Funny the Irish didn’t get a dime and they were oppressed far more …
This reparation action is necessary and right. The way the Reverend describes the reasoning behind it is spot on. The way to make up for a wrong (in this case a very serious and damaging wrong) is to admit it without excuses and make amends humbly. These attitudes and actions give this white grandma hope for America’s future.
now take the money from the white americans that were born to these slavers
I don’t like white people and I don’t have any white friend but this man I would consider an ally and friend. Sir, thank you
Wow!
So did they pay these family at the wages that they would’ve earned back when they were working in their slavery or at today’s wages?
What does this accomplish?
Are those families satisfied?
Are they forgiven after reparations received?
Amen!
😡China has at least 2 types of vaccine back in Feb, 2020! Before WHO announced the world pandemic! Unbelievable but that’s true!!!

Next they'll be giving Reparations to the decendent's of witches, and Crusade era Muslims
Finally I hear a Reverend putting “reparations†as a “morale issuesâ€ÂÂ…like he said if you repent your sin you must make a men’s. Kudos to the seminary.
What about compensation for women? Their salaries today are still below men counterparts. Many many women today are heads of households and need the money as well! What about reparations for all the Jewish people killed in the Holocaust?
1st good news out of a Abrahamic religion 2000yrs.
I've been reading some of these comments and it's sickening deplorable it's horriblehow anyone could think that these people don't deserve what their forefathers work for and reparations when the native Americans Japanese Jewish people all received reparations right now Jewish people are getting 10 million a day from us receive reparations no one's complaining about their tax moneyand the LBGTQ community received over 13 million dollars just this past year in reparations taxpayers have all benefit from trillions of dollars of free labor to build this country so that you do have taxpayers you people are sad wicked horrible people they did more than you have two deserve not to be compensated ridiculous and a shame

Thank you to them for trying and listening ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¾â¤︠Buy land and a house and a gun garden 🪴 these are the folks the Billionaire should be donating too
This is beautiful
They can do what they want with their money
I support reparations but they need to be part of a remigration plan as well.
I applaud it. Archbishop of Canterbury too did acknowledge how the Anglican Church treated slaves in West Indies, The Church would brand them on their body. He apologized & asked for forgiveness. Mainline Protestant Churches doing a wonderful thing not only for repenting for their sins but also trying to compensate their descendants. The state should do the same. Not only to African Americans but also native Americans. Especially native Americans bc they do not have as big a voice as African Americans.
How much has already been paid out? I'm not against paying reparations, I think it should be fair though.
YES!!! Progress!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳
