Yes. Please understand that black people don't need to be micro-managed. They just need to be left free from being stigmatized, traumatized and terrorized when receiving compensation.
Agreed! Guard rails should be available & administered with appropriate over site (preferably by us #JOBS) should they be needed. It should not be a mandatory prerequisite to receiving reparations.
Jealousy, hatred, greed, envy, conflict, strife, and a general lack of the knowledge of oneself....all those are paths of dishonor, discord, distraction and destruction.

If white people that never own slaves that aren't even related to slave owners that weren't even in the country family line wise or that even worse, fought for the union have to pay reparations. You'll see a rebirth of racism that you haven't seen since Woodrow Wilson screened it at the White House.
When they started to talk about how it would be paid out they lost me. Down payment assistance and education vouchers?? Nope give that money to the people and let them decide what it is they want. And black people do value home ownership. Cant maintain a house when youre poor thats why they end up selling after inheritance
It's not a big conversation when it comes to any other people done wrong to receive reparations. Why are every other group of people putting in their advice and ideas. We do not need it.

@@geecoulson4908yea idk about Ukraine but the Jews received reparations from the u.s government for being Holocaust survivors when America ain't even do that😂😂 also Muslims are given reparations for criticism against them after 9-11 and that's not even slavery and didn't even have a body count comparable 😂😂 both from the u.s government, the LGBTQ got reparations and THATS NOT EVEN A RACE😂😂 it's a preference😂 the Biden administration is giving reparations to the lgbtq😂😂😂 so why when over 4000 black people were taken to California to do gold mine work regardless of it not being a slave state, do you think that's not something worth reparations? The u.s government is giving out reparations to people far less worthy... Outside of the USA you do know SPANISH California was full of slaves, and when it comes to America those 4000 slaves settled here and are still here...
To date, we have provided approximately $44.3 billion in military assistance since Russia launched its premeditated, unprovoked, and brutal full-scale invasion against Ukraine on February 24, 2022, and approximately $47 billion in military assistance since Russia's initial invasion of Ukraine in 2014.Apr 24, 2024

20:17 California tribes are consistently working to get the treaties to be properly acknowledged. For educational purposes and for people who don’t know, treaties are not reparations. The legalities surrounding California Mission Bands and all the rest of the tribes, state and federally recognized haven’t had any kind of formal reparations in the manner that is being presented in this story. It is certain the focus of this story is on reparations for African American people, and since the conversation includes land, the intersection of indigenous peoples of the area may need to be included as part of the conversation. By the way, San Diego is land of the Kumayaay (beautiful people by the sea).

The US Gov't is not innocent... it has wronged this particular group of citizens in a number of ways for it's entire history 📖 reparation (noun): action of making amends for wrong one has done, by providing payment or other assistance
Are ancestors built this country from their blood, sweat and tears white people like you still finding excuses not give blacks anything but when it comes to every other race it's not a problem giving them reparations
@@paultrought267 Everybody is innocent until proven guilty. Nobody is a victim until they have proven tangible harm. Exactly what are you accusing me of? The accuser bears the burden of proof that the accused is guilty of the crime they are accused of. Have you filed your charges yet?
Good grief. Slavery was awful. Nobody denies that. We have an entire month dedicated to black Americans. If that’s not acknowledgment then what the hell is?!! Tired of hearing about cash reparations aka more free handouts
Tired of hearing about cash reparations aka more free handouts, is what white people said to those who were directly enslaved from 1865 to present. Y'all (racist whites) keep saying what them slave owners said but get mad.
💯 Biden is a racist who has never cared about black people. He and Kamala Harris had an agenda in bringing migrants here to take the place of the black vote. Haitians are being dumped in certain states such as Springfield Ohio to work for lower wages. This a form of slavery as well.
Seems you will be the only one talking about it... The rest of society has more important things to worry about besides financially supporting black people for another generation we have already been doing so for the last 60 years. Time for you to sink or swim... You're not our problem nor financial responsibility.

From a philosophic standpoint can you ever put a price on, or should you put a price on, the wrongs of the past that no one committed that is living today? Recognition seems like a good thing. Reparations is a head scratcher. Langston Hughes has some interesting things to say about this.
Just because you started out with philosophical standpoint you dropped drastically with your thought process that followed the government that started this country still exist today.

Or if hundreds of their successful towns and businesses b*rned down, inspired by economic fear and jealousy. Or government experimentation done for decades inserting syph*l*s into your community.

I would think that the billions of dollars that has been given to black Americans in Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid has more than made up for that. Not including the billions that has been spent on public education, Pell grants and every other entitlement programs given to black Americans which should be included as payment given.
IM not overstanding all this talk and study first while they just pulling money out of thin air throwing it to everyone else. WHAT HAPPENED TO AFFIRMATIVE ACTION? ITS A STROKE OF A PEN.
I acknowledge that the history of slavery has had a detrimental effect on the lives of many Americans today. There, are you satisfied, because that’s all you’ll ever get from me.
Unfortunately, if this happens, a loaf of bread will cost $16 dollars the following day. It sounds like a good idea, but it's not economically feasible.
If you're talking about giving billions of dollars to foreign aid, I totally agree with you. I have to confess, however, I'm not educated enough on the subject.@@montecali619
Actually thats another study before approving the bill because those who trying to push for reparations are pushing for also tax free and non inflations so it wont keep those who receive the payments in the same situation
If its not an issue with the Native Americans the Jewish people from the holocaust that took place in Europe from the Japanese that was held in encampments during World War I then it shouldn’t be an issue with foundational black Americans, who built this country to be compensated by the form of reparation cash payments either.
I guess the millions of Europeans, who immigrated to this country didn’t do anything at all, but just sit and watch while black Americans worked every clothing factory and steel mill. Dimwits.
The biggest problem with our people is our total ignorance of facts. Natives have not received reparations. A few tribes receive payments for land leasing agreements with America. That's it. Jews didn't receive reparations from America. The Japanese did get reparations but they were still living. The slaves are dead.
@@jamessmith-xq9zi It's as if me who is in Mexico- ask the Spaniards for money for what they did here. I know it's not the same because I'm not in Spain- but I still find it ridiculous. But it's your country so I guess you'll tell me that it's none of my business.
Like you mentioned before you need to mind your own business but here's some business you need to mind or investigate, research when the moors invaded Spain and Portugal what the moors did to both portu gese and Spain women.
Oh of course, James... It's your country but I'm in Baja California- just across the border so like it or not what affects you affects me and especially vice versa. Like it or not! Have a great weekend, bye!
For real reparations: they identify an actual victim of the offense in question. They specify the abuses and damages. They assign a dollar amount for their compensation. They pay the victim. If the victim is deceased; they identify the closest living legal heir and pay them. What is the name of the slave that you are trying to collect the unpaid reparations for?
Most African Americans can trace back to those grands above them. Slave owners were businessmen, they kept records and had insurance with the likes of Wells Fargo/Wachovia etc. That's how they received reparations from the US Gov't in the 1860s. Only discrepancy is that the wrongs in this country didn't just disappear when the slaves were freed. Even the Civil rights act didn't occur til 1964, we're barely 60yrs from then. If you care to research, California State submitted a full analysis last June. The information is freely available.
@@ca_quixote Yep. Bad things happened to people. Bad things happened to everybody's ancestors. That doesn't incur a debt between us. A victim is someone who has suffered tangible harm due to a violation of individual rights. This might be in the form of being the lawful heir of a victim. Just being related to a victim does not make one a victim.
@@ca_quixote Large slave holders had insurance on their slave business but individual slave holders didn't have much insurance. Compensation goes to the person or, if deceased, the person's child or spouse. It doesn't go to the 3rd and 4th generation down.
@@d.d.2555 1.) What compensation are you referencing? 2.) In what ways is your reference relevant to the topic of reparations for the descendants of people enslaved for 6 generations in America?
@@Zindo.Majesty.HisMajesty I don't hear all nobody saying it didn't happen to the native Americans. What about Asian in concentration camps in California and them receiving a hate bill nobody is hating them tho. I thought California was taken from the Mexican but it wasn't taken from the ones alive today so whats that about? don't hear anyone saying it didn't happen to them. American had nothing to do with the Jews but some how they even receive reparations from America they called aid and assist money. What about the land grabs they did and took all our land. It's systemic. People feel we don't deserve reparations but never say we are lying about what happened. It's called cause and effect they teach this in school remember.
I'm so happy that I moved out of California I lived there for 37 years of my life and I would never be able to make anything build anything have anything 😢
If thats how u feel and that is the case go complain to the Native Americans descendants because they still receive reparations over something that happen even before Black Americans came to the United States.
Literally trillions of dollars of taxpayer money has been spent on government programs for the Black community. Sometimes you have to look in the mirror
@@paultrought267 I took nothing, neither did my parents, nor my grandparents, nor my great great parents. My great grandmother was actually black, am I entiteled to reparations?
This is not about Japanese internment camps it's about FBA,who were oppressed longer and brutality more than any other group for over three centuries in this country.The Japanese got their whole country rebuilt by American dollars/reparations.Black who are behind any reparations effort should never allow any one to include themselves in our Reparations demand.Acknowledging the past can only mean CASH PAYMENTS.
The beginning of repairing this country as a whole has to start from somewhere. Reparations are owed to the descendants of channeled slavery and the harsh treatments and unfair practices that are still taking place. Moving forward can only be an effective solution.
First Of All Your Name Speaks Volumes.... Your History Facts Are Totally Incorrect.... We Are Not Talking About Your So Call "Ron Desantis From Florida" History...

There are many people who have been enslaved that are not black people. However the black community seem to be the only one who have not been able to succeed with their current abilities.. Maybe offer them all free college education as reprarations making is an opportunity to better themselves...
@@jamessmith-xq9zi "we have our own college" And it is not working out so well.... Sorry it is statistics that this groups is struggling compare to all other races... Education and work ethics is the best option for success... In addition a good family structure would increase the sucess rate.
1) Name the other people that were enslaved in America 2) If you can name these people how many of their towns, cities, communities were burned down, flooded, made into parks, highways paved through then on top that laws were enacted to stymie the growth of said people. 3) What is the percentage of people going to college 90%, 75%, anything under 50% should not be part of reparations. Just cut the check and let me make the decisions. 4) If you can't answer the first two questions stay on the sidelines and be quiet. I hear nothing but crickets. !!!Crickets!!!
#1No Taxes for 400 years is reparations. #2Free land to descendants of American Slavery, #3 Instant Passports for Life for 400 years #4Double State Federal and Local Government Pay -#5cancel student loans #6 guarantee free college for 400 years #7 Gov grants to start business or improve property. This would be reparations for me.
@@Black_Iron44 but what happened to them was within their lifetime your so far removed from that part of history that this is just about money how about you raise the moral compass within the black community so young black males will want to get jobs instead of thinking about fast cash from drugs
Where the money will come from???? Really?? Hmm the government prints the money therefore they can print the money to cover the cost. It is that simple.
It's always interesting to hear people say why anyone who wasn't directly affected is deserving of anything. It's so easy to dismiss the history of America as a get over it like they got over because of it. The only option that matters is their's, never addressing the truth. A good start is to admit it happened and is true. Start from there and your opinion might have some merit.
This would Extremely Divide this Country even more than it already is by doing this right now. Every Single Person and Family is Hurting bad financially due too Inflation.Helping one Race of People would inferiate The Rest of The Country. Right now could be the worst time to do this.
Something to consider for sure. But the redress has to occur at some point, the sooner the better for the entire country. Half the issues we have are from lack of governmental accountability and correlating action. This would 100% be positive, even if it took a bit to ease initial discomfort the country would be better for it in the long run. Trust.
Why do we need all these committees to determine what types of reparations should be given. Just give us the reparations in cash payments. No other race who have received repararation required education. We're not children. Let us determine how best to invest the money for our families.
We know because our tax dollars are going to everyone that's not American and we know that it would hurt everyone if any black person got any of that money
@@ludovicleprinceroyal8721 Have you ever considered that the negativity you're exuding will shorten your lifespan and make it is less enjoyable for yourself as well as those around you?
Demanding reparations for long past damages to ancestors (slavery) is stupid and unwise. The statute of limitations has been long expired; slaves and slave owners are long, long dead. There was a limited time after the Civil War to demand legitimately for reparations for freed slaves from slave owners. OK, expropriate the wealth of the former slave owners and transfer said wealth to the freed slaves. History is tragic. The Civil War wiped out utterly the wealth of 99% of the former slave owners and many former slave owners were not land owners. Post-Civil War there was little to distribute to former slaves because nearly all southerners (Black, White) became destitute from the war. Who benefitted (financially, property-wise, wealth-wise) from the Civil War? Answer: the Northerners and they were not slave owners. Booker T. Washington (former slave) wrote about former slaves helping out their former owners who fell on hard times. Should said former slaves DEMAND reparations instead of helping the former owners? The slave revenge movies are popular today (2024 AD). A village has been totally destroyed by a tornado. God is guilty of this EVIL!!! Demand reparations from God!!! Such thoughts are idiotic. Someone damaged either your person or your property. You have full rights to demand reparations from the guilty. However, tragically, the guilty is often destitute so what reparations can you get? Are you going to mourn your loss forever and never do anything? A village has been totally destroyed by a tornado. What to do? Wait until God provides reparations? Or would you get up and rebuild the village? A drug-addicted, homeless, penniless, deranged arsonist burned down your house. What to do? Do nothing, do not rebuild the house until the arsonist made FULL Reparations? Question: Should you suffer for the sins of your dead parents? Should you pay off the debts of your dead parents? Generational servitude is sustained by having children obligated for the debts of their parents: this is the history of poverty in 3rd world countries, aka s**th**e countries. There is an asymmetry. I am sure you are very eager to collect what is owed to your dead parents. Even if the debt is owed only to your dead great-great-grand parents. Underlying this eagerness is greed. This asymmetry makes one blind to the other party. You are not the sole party in society. Others (the other party) are also part of society. Question rephrased: Should the other party suffer for the sins of their dead parents? Should the other party pay off the debts of their dead parents? The issue of reparation is often linked to that of justice. What is justice? Justice can defined thus: Justice is the ethical, philosophical idea that people are to be treated impartially, fairly, properly, and reasonably by the law and by arbiters of the law, that laws are to ensure that no harm befalls another, and that, where harm is alleged, a remedial action is taken - both the accuser and the accused receive a morally right consequence merited by their actions. Justice. When you go to court, you do not determine what Justice is. The Judge, the Court, the Jury decide what is Justice for you. You may not be satisfied with the Justice but if you want to stay a citizen in good standing with society, you have to ACCEPT the Judgement. What you are seeking is not so much Justice but Satisfaction. Satisfaction has more in common with Retribution than with Justice. Yes, you can appeal again and again and again and again. You just become a vexatious litigant and your standing in society diminishes. You become a liability, not an asset to society. Think of the Bible as a collection of writings by the Ancients Sages, not so much the Word of God. Deuteronomy 15 : 1 = At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts. Comment: The above verse refers to you who want reparations. If reparations is debt, cancel the debt. What is your valuation of the concept of "statute of limitations"? Deuteronomy 15 : 3 = You may require payment from a foreigner, but you must cancel any debt your brother owes you. Comment: Who is supposed to pay this "reparation"? Which entity is supposed to pay this "reparation"? Do you consider this entity to be a foreigner or a sibling? Deuteronomy 15 :11 = There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land. Comment: The above verse refers to you who want reparations. Instead of demanding "reparations", try to become an asset, not a liability, to your society. The mob's motto: No Justice, no Peace! Much of the violence, turmoil, dystopia in this World is caused by people pursuing JUSTICE!!!, pursuing COSMIC JUSTICE!!! Question: what do you value more: Justice? Peace?
Perhaps there is an unconscious connection between historical legal and financial oppression of different populations and how that impacts future generations. Maybe we can stand to consider ways to reverse said harm if it indeed connects to the current state of affairs.

@@d.d.2555 The fact that you say "we" I'm going to assume you have ancestors that were enslaved on US soil. If that is the case then I don't understand your lack of historical context. Perhaps you had a different childhood or family history than I did. If you don't understand that there were multiple books written on how to manipulate and socially engineer the black population I encourage you to research them. Then we should also consider that multiple government agencies were leveraged against our communities over decades, assassinating essentially all leaders who didn't acquiesce. Drugs and guns were actively pushed into our neighborhoods for profit and social destabilization. All of this results in mass incarceration, broken homes, and cyclical behavior unconsciously passed to future generations if not addressed within each family.

Your forefathers DID receive reparations through the Freedmans Bureau. White people picked cotton too for pennies. Reparations are not for random suffering. It's compensation for a specific legal wrongdoing to the person (or the person's child) that was wronged. We are not slaves nor are we their children.

Go through that for 300 years and we'll call it even
Forcing the innocent to pay nonvictims for something that happened to neither of them is not reparations.
The US Gov't is not innocent... it has wronged this particular group of citizens in a number of ways for it's entire history
📖 reparation (noun):
action of making amends for wrong one has done, by providing payment or other assistance
Shut up please and thank you
Are ancestors built this country from their blood, sweat and tears white people like you still finding excuses not give blacks anything but when it comes to every other race it's not a problem giving them reparations

Good grief. Slavery was awful. Nobody denies that. We have an entire month dedicated to black Americans. If that’s not acknowledgment then what the hell is?!! Tired of hearing about cash reparations aka more free handouts
Tired of hearing about cash reparations aka more free handouts, is what white people said to those who were directly enslaved from 1865 to present. Y'all (racist whites) keep saying what them slave owners said but get mad.
I want reparations, for putting up with Biden!
Me too haha
💯 Biden is a racist who has never cared about black people. He and Kamala Harris had an agenda in bringing migrants here to take the place of the black vote. Haitians are being dumped in certain states such as Springfield Ohio to work for lower wages. This a form of slavery as well.
Keep fighting for what you believe is right.
Only thing Black votes need to talk about at this point is Reparations Now for us, nothing else is more important. That’s our plight period.
LOL That money has been spent on ILLEGAL ALIENS.

From a philosophic standpoint can you ever put a price on, or should you put a price on, the wrongs of the past that no one committed that is living today? Recognition seems like a good thing. Reparations is a head scratcher. Langston Hughes has some interesting things to say about this.
Just because you started out with philosophical standpoint you dropped drastically with your thought process that followed the government that started this country still exist today.

I would think that the billions of dollars that has been given to black Americans in Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid has more than made up for that.

For real reparations: they identify an actual victim of the offense in question.
They specify the abuses and damages.
They assign a dollar amount for their compensation.
They pay the victim.
If the victim is deceased; they identify the closest living legal heir and pay them.
What is the name of the slave that you are trying to collect the unpaid reparations for?
Most African Americans can trace back to those grands above them. Slave owners were businessmen, they kept records and had insurance with the likes of Wells Fargo/Wachovia etc. That's how they received reparations from the US Gov't in the 1860s.
Only discrepancy is that the wrongs in this country didn't just disappear when the slaves were freed. Even the Civil rights act didn't occur til 1964, we're barely 60yrs from then. If you care to research, California State submitted a full analysis last June. The information is freely available.

Bad things happened to people.

Just being related to a victim does not make one a victim.

@@ariellopez1834 Why though?
Demanding reparations for long past damages to ancestors (slavery) is stupid and unwise.
The statute of limitations has been long expired; slaves and slave owners are long, long dead.
There was a limited time after the Civil War to demand legitimately for reparations for freed slaves from slave owners. OK, expropriate the wealth of the former slave owners and transfer said wealth to the freed slaves. History is tragic. The Civil War wiped out utterly the wealth of 99% of the former slave owners and many former slave owners were not land owners. Post-Civil War there was little to distribute to former slaves because nearly all southerners (Black, White) became destitute from the war. Who benefitted (financially, property-wise, wealth-wise) from the Civil War? Answer: the Northerners and they were not slave owners.
Booker T. Washington (former slave) wrote about former slaves helping out their former owners who fell on hard times. Should said former slaves DEMAND reparations instead of helping the former owners? The slave revenge movies are popular today (2024 AD).
A village has been totally destroyed by a tornado. God is guilty of this EVIL!!! Demand reparations from God!!! Such thoughts are idiotic. Someone damaged either your person or your property. You have full rights to demand reparations from the guilty. However, tragically, the guilty is often destitute so what reparations can you get? Are you going to mourn your loss forever and never do anything?
A village has been totally destroyed by a tornado. What to do? Wait until God provides reparations? Or would you get up and rebuild the village?
A drug-addicted, homeless, penniless, deranged arsonist burned down your house. What to do? Do nothing, do not rebuild the house until the arsonist made FULL Reparations?
Question: Should you suffer for the sins of your dead parents? Should you pay off the debts of your dead parents? Generational servitude is sustained by having children obligated for the debts of their parents: this is the history of poverty in 3rd world countries, aka s**th**e countries.
There is an asymmetry. I am sure you are very eager to collect what is owed to your dead parents. Even if the debt is owed only to your dead great-great-grand parents. Underlying this eagerness is greed. This asymmetry makes one blind to the other party. You are not the sole party in society. Others (the other party) are also part of society. Question rephrased: Should the other party suffer for the sins of their dead parents? Should the other party pay off the debts of their dead parents?
The issue of reparation is often linked to that of justice. What is justice? Justice can defined thus: Justice is the ethical, philosophical idea that people are to be treated impartially, fairly, properly, and reasonably by the law and by arbiters of the law, that laws are to ensure that no harm befalls another, and that, where harm is alleged, a remedial action is taken - both the accuser and the accused receive a morally right consequence merited by their actions.
Justice. When you go to court, you do not determine what Justice is. The Judge, the Court, the Jury decide what is Justice for you. You may not be satisfied with the Justice but if you want to stay a citizen in good standing with society, you have to ACCEPT the Judgement. What you are seeking is not so much Justice but Satisfaction. Satisfaction has more in common with Retribution than with Justice. Yes, you can appeal again and again and again and again. You just become a vexatious litigant and your standing in society diminishes. You become a liability, not an asset to society.
Think of the Bible as a collection of writings by the Ancients Sages, not so much the Word of God.
Deuteronomy 15 : 1 = At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts.
Comment: The above verse refers to you who want reparations. If reparations is debt, cancel the debt. What is your valuation of the concept of "statute of limitations"?
Deuteronomy 15 : 3 = You may require payment from a foreigner, but you must cancel any debt your brother owes you.
Comment: Who is supposed to pay this "reparation"? Which entity is supposed to pay this "reparation"? Do you consider this entity to be a foreigner or a sibling?
Deuteronomy 15 :11 = There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land.
Comment: The above verse refers to you who want reparations. Instead of demanding "reparations", try to become an asset, not a liability, to your society.
The mob's motto: No Justice, no Peace! Much of the violence, turmoil, dystopia in this World is caused by people pursuing JUSTICE!!!, pursuing COSMIC JUSTICE!!!
Question: what do you value more: Justice? Peace?

If you don't understand that there were multiple books written on how to manipulate and socially engineer the black population I encourage you to research them. Then we should also consider that multiple government agencies were leveraged against our communities over decades, assassinating essentially all leaders who didn't acquiesce. Drugs and guns were actively pushed into our neighborhoods for profit and social destabilization. All of this results in mass incarceration, broken homes, and cyclical behavior unconsciously passed to future generations if not addressed within each family.
I understand the concept of oversensationalized victim mentality. That is relevant on an individual level, were A persona shouldn't think of themselves as less capable due to past abuse(both personal and systematic).

Or if hundreds of their successful towns and businesses b*rned down, inspired by economic fear and jealousy. Or government experimentation done for decades inserting syph*l*s into your community. Or flooding your low income areas with dr*gs and g*ns via f*deral agencies, items that their general population could never have produced or aquired without control over the border or legal system. If the shoe was on the other foot and any of these things went unnoticed or unrecognized by the larger population and instead they decided to pretend none of it happened and not right the wrong, I'd for sure be there as a fellow citizen to support you.

Don’t take it from taxes

People keeping asking why now but this isnt the first time we tried for our Reperations its just Country always hate on us
This still going on I thought reparations were given already Jews got it from WW2 Japanese Americans I know for a fact black veterans didn't get the payment which is owed even now yet descendants of slavery are still waiting no that is folly for those who don't know reparations is not just finical payments it's about federal laws that prevents Africans Caribbean people and indigenous people worldwide can prosper in which ever country that part take in slavery
A moral obligation for sure
I'm making a company that specializes in putting tiny almost worthless diamonds all over everyday appliances. My projections are showing that my company will infact get all these reperation dollars. Wait until chicken is coming out of the diamond studded deep fryer!
Like California wasn't going bankrupt fast enough!...😂
