- California became the first state in the nation to come up with a plan to address reparations for slavery and the lingering effects of anti-Black racism in the United States. What is the plan, why is it needed, and where do we go from here? Watch the ABC7 Originals documentary "California's Case for Reparations." abc7ne.ws/4aGtGKc

It's crazy how every reparations cases are done everywhere but the south, where slavery was a thing.
Oh it’s coming here too! Did you even watch the video?
How was non slaves states not benefactors of slavery and cheap black labor for centuries?
@@kurtgainz i never owned a slave and don't owe a dime. get a job.
@@chickenfarmer209 How many Indians did you drive off of their land and kill?
@@kurtgainzYou are not getting reparations from the Democrat's or Republicans
So are we gonna return California to Mexico too. 😂
This is kinda funny, but queen khalifa was “black” 🎓 crazy I NEVER heard her name ever in any history class I wonder why
You are invaders period! Wherever you set your pink stinky feet outside of Europe!
In a way, part of it has been given back but we keep the right to tax it.
Oh, it HAS .
Its crazy how all these prejudice/ racist/hateful folks talking crazy. There has been so much taken from us and still being restricted from gaining wealth. Those making these hateful and disrespectful comments are not acknowledging all others who has received reparations including slave owners.
your ancestors freedom was purchased from the south at the cheapest price possible.
It's more racist to make us pay for something a few people did 200 years ago. It's also your own fault if you can't live well in this country.
Your solution to being denied gaining wealth is a one time payment that isn't likely to fix any systemic issues anyways? Or do you want the payments to be so frequent or so big they carry you for life at the taxpayers' expense?
No slaves were owned in CA
You need to do your research. I can tell you're not very educated to state such foolishness.@@jallen1227

This is ridiculous! The place had no plumbing, no SANITATION. When Alameda County refused to annex the area and provide those services, the area was declared blighted and eminent domain was used in order to build an industrial park there. The Dutch were first to Russel City, only later did Black Americans form a community. And let’s get real, we’re talking about like 12 sq blocks and about 1,400 people!
I thought they already gave out reparations by letting them have everything in stores for free
I know your ancestors had slave owners racist piece of shit
The whole country would be reparations if that were the case. You’d lose way more. Stop crying over warnings 😂
Dat be funny
The Republican Party needs to start supporting Reparations for the descendants of slaves. The Democrat Party is solely responsible for Slavery and as such bears the responsibility for the repercussion of slavery. The KKK was sued and bankrupted by the people that were harmed by the KKK. The same can be done to the Democrat Party. The financial burden of defending the Party against the lawsuits filed on behalf of those claiming damage and hopefully having to pay Reparations, will be burdensome. In the process of defending themselves. The information showing the Democrat Party is entirely responsible for: Slavery, the Civil War(600,000 dead Americans), the creation of the KKK and the creation of the Jim Crow Laws, will get through the Democrats Propaganda Machine. This information will cause irreparable damage to the the Party of Slavery.
All the KKK did was turn in their robes and hoods for badges and guns.
A state that never had slavery would give reparations?
We already give them reparations
It’s called welfare 😊
Black people should be going after Washington and Oregon for banning them.
you don't know history.
@@Billiepippen you think California had slavery? Wow kiddo
@@busterofcoviddeniers😂 you're a fool.
So do I get reparations for the Irish slave trade that the Arabs and Vikings had going? I’d like California to pay me for that.

@@user-ej3ro9om8q Yes I hate this, what made you come to such a novel conclusion detective?
Nah, you’re white, so you will always be exploited by leftists.
Too bad the Irish, Arabs and Vikings didn’t built up this economy. Do you know how many businesses still exist today that made their money off of Black Chattle Slavery?
The Vikings and Arabs that enslaved your people weren't from California.
Forcing the innocent to pay nonvictims for something that happened to neither of them is not reparations.
innocent doesn't mean not responsible. "Nonvictims" doesn't mean unaffected or unimpacted. In law we have a concept called vicarious liability that routinely and regularly applies to place the COST of blame on a responsible party. A customer drops a shampoo in a store and another customer slips in it. The store pays because it is responsible. It gets hard to understand when selfish, racist, ignorant, self-important thoughts are all that you're made of. Corporations also fought against vicarious liability to avoid having to pay you for your broken foot when customers of even employees get injured at work. So your perspective is nothing new.
@michaeljoseph6782
Innocent certainly does mean not responsible.
Nonvictim certainly does mean bearing no material harm.
If you aren't out anything; there is no cost to place on anybody.
I also oppose frivolous lawsuits targeted against deep pockets instead of responsible parties..
They aren’t innocent

So people that never owned slaves have to give money to people that never were slaves. Brilliant.
My family comes from Denmark in 1900’s. We’ve never been part of the slave world but are we supposed to pay?
do you think that they would have had need for you to come here if slavery never happened?
If u moved to Germany ur tax dollars would be going to Jewish ppl even tho u had nothing to do with anything. Think of it as buying a house with a lien. Don't Wana pay the lien don't buy the house.
@@antwaino7318 they know all this. they just don't want to help black people. most of these people objecting have stock in companies that would collapse if they did not have us as cheap labor. paying us crumbs keep this economy going. these people are literally fighting to keep the last vestages of slavery alive.

Paying more for everything in life, having to drive 3x as far to work, in order to live in a safer neighborhood away from the doctors and scholars reparations would be nice too.
Why do we have to “study” something we know is true? Where would Black America be if our descendants had got their 40 acres and a mule? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
In the same place they are now
Smh 400 years of free labor is crazy! We built this place for these ungrateful and despicable people!
And they act like we don’t deserve equity, whole system is designed anti-black…. Hire everyone except “black” don’t even need to speak the language because they never want us to acquire enough for equity. And honestly we shouldn’t have to go to white ppl or any foreigner as our “boss” or superior. We are the superior we built everything.

Right here
@@wigsplitter777stop lying we fought to get out of slavery
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?
Rufus Morgan Burgess say it loud! And run me my check 🤬 and if ppl don’t know the name of their ancestors or what they owned because of shady practices of the time they still deserve to be compensated for all the suffering inflicted by this government.
@@BillionssEnt
Nope;
Just demanding free money is not adequate; no matter how loud you do it.
The ones who seek to take what someone else has bear the burden of proof that they own it.
If you aren't out anything;
You aren't owed anything.
U guys get on the internet and troll us and it’s all fun and games from your white point of views but I have a cousin my age who lost their life just trying get by day to day as a black man in America.

Your performance has been exemplary.
Thank you for your uncircumspect candor.
Trying to couch your little race war in some kind of justice really doesn't fit. Your targets are innocent people and your constituents are militant savages.
In some cases not easy to find. Most slaves where not assigned a "sire" name, birthdates not recorded. Simply listed in tax documents, bill of sales with a first name along with the animals owned or 21:39 sold.🤬
My black folks listen to me good. Whenever you hear politicians or some black activist saying we need to do a study . This is nothing other than a delay tatic. They been studying for years. What is there to be studied? So cut the nonsense and cut the check.
Absolutely agreed.
Make the state of Georgia pay. Louisiana. Fuck it make England pay. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP WASTING CA TAXES
All y'all racist, thieving pink people gonna pay! Hell y'all stole America!
The African kangz who sold them should pay
What about the Africans who sold you?
This is B.S!
Legislating reparations is exactly what you want to do when you want to ignite racial conflict. Also if a person is white, but they identify as Sub Saharan African do they still have to pay?
NO. We have too many things to worry about then giving away money to people who never experienced slavery in their life right now I feel like I’m a slave because I’m paying out the ass in taxes. Californians are sleeping on the street because they can’t pay the rent in California yet we have the money millions of dollars to give away to black people who never experienced slavery in their lifetime. This is ridiculous.
This is unacceptable! These people have never been slaves, and we have never owned slaves! Wrong, wrong, wrong!
you can't have and keep what your ancestors stole from them.
It's not just slavery. It's Jim crow, share cropping, red lining, lynching, exclusion from the GI bill, imminent domain targeting black neighborhoods (Seneca village aka central park, freeways splitting black areas etc.), housing discrimination, medical racism, and I could go on. Cut the check!
how can I be free yet another man determines for me if i am free or not?
@T-R-O-L-L-E-D ur whole society benefitted. It was called the SLAVE ECONOMY because slavery was the WHOLE ECONOMY. All american industries benefitted from the slave economy. Black folks weren't benefitting economically at all during slavery. Ur ppl who came after ww2 benefitted because there was a wealthy country to go to that was built on slave labor. If it wasn't for slavery America would not be the super power it is today.
@T-R-O-L-L-E-D nice try but you can say that about native Americans even more. Black people didn't destroy them but we pay towards their reparations. your involvement or level of benefit doesn't matter when giving money to anyone else. this proves you are an anti black racist. you are maintaining the number 1 rule o f being a white racist and that is to never help black people escape the poverty yall put them in.
I think we need money for the great act by the government…deeply structural systemic racism by the government work force,those of us who were mistreated for most of our life 😢
🤣🤣🤣
I thank God for the opportunities The United States has afforded me and my family. I stand on the shoulders of my parents, grandparents, and ancient ancestors and no one owes me anything. I owe the thousands who came before me. I owe the thousands who died in every war that enabled us all to be free. Let's move forward.
Amen🙏
If this becomes reality? I'm not gonna pay anymore taxes...really!? There were no slaves in California....why would we pay anybody anything?
Don't worry people it has to be voted upon and every time it has been it's been rejected it's all talk
What happened to what you call other people is what affects me today. Not only have they stolen our wealth, but they have stolen our minds, our culture, and our views.

Be grateful of the wonderful contributions of the black community and their culture to our society. Their peaceful Non-Violent generous nature and articulate speaking skills makes them ideal neighbors, lending testimony to their exceptional family values and parenting skills unrivaled by any other culture. Their rational and logical thought toward circumstances coupled with their innate capability to de-escalate situations is to be envied and coveted. Their commitment to academic excellence enriches our schools and serves as an example to all who hope to achieve prominence as a people. Real estate values are fueled by the influx of African Americans into an area due to their caring and respectful nurturing of these communities, as an example of all they have achieved by their enthusiasm for self-improvement through hard work and a self-reliant can-do nature. Creators of Jugging, Bipping, wilding, AirBnB Shootings, Knockout Game, Kia Boys, Squegee Boys, without their industrious and creative drive, we would be poorer as a nation. Upvote if you agree.
Your jealousy and obsession with black people is ooozing out here
With your superior comprehension skills, did you watch the video?

Translation: "Everything I think I know about black people and their contributions comes strictly from mainstream media outlets that attempts to paint them all under a negative light and I subscribe because I literally have nothing better to do with my own life and mine is so miserable that I cannot handle my own insecurities that I have about them so I just start spewing on the internet to make myself feel better."
You sir are a gentleman and a scholar, cheers!
All surviving freed slaves are entitled to reparations.
I say if you claim any money, you should be sent back to Africa were you people belong.

Notice how there has to be a debate, hearing, even a query of sorts when it comes to reperations. But not when it comes to giving billions to Ukraine, Israel, Japanese Americans (per treatment during WWII), or other groups. When it comes to black people, every excuse and stall tactic will be used. Also, the damage to us goes far beyond CHATTEL slavery. Not indentured servitude which took place everywhere else.
Migrants funding is a slap in our face
Israel and Ukraine are given money because of lobbying and/or because it benefits the US geopolitically, they aren't reps. From what I can tell, the reps for Japanese Americans went to the actual surviving internment victims. In the same way the survivors of the Tuskegee experiments were given reparations directly, not their descendants. None of these things are the same as what this video proposes.
wth... california wasnt in the south.. and what about the Chinese that build the railroads for california? im moving out of california, i suggest everyone else too unless you're getting reparations.

This foos just want a hand out
wow,, 17 children, I worked very hard to raise just one son...where would these people be now if they were not brought to US, and then given all the things they were given up till now, good or bad... And, who is going to give them more now, will it be taken from people like me to give to them, the whole thing is quite interesting. I am also wondering how much giving will be enough, and in what form? Looking at their people who made it into great wealth and fame and leadership in a few generations, none of that really counts I guess, just not enough. I suppose they could ask the extremely wealthy families who benefitted from slave labor to give them something more but it should not be your average work day Americans that pays more taxes to make them wealthier.
Ok give them the money and no more complaints.
Generational wealth? My mother died when I was 23 and I had no money for her burial. My Aunt paid for it with her hard earned savings. I am so sick of this generational wealth BS! I certainly had nothing!
just because your family are losers doesn't mean we all have to be. white people are in first place. if you are poor it's cuz yall made bad choices. Black people did choose to be put in ghettos. they didn't make it illegal for then to read. some people need help and you do it because it's the right thing to do. you simply want to never help black people and that's unrealistic. we help immigrants cone here daily but you won't help the poorest Americans your community robbed and took everything from? perhaps you like slavery...
Ma'am that's a weak argument. That's an anecdote and they're talking stats. Also ur ppl were not held back from creating generational wealth. If ur grand parents and parents failed to pass u down something, they failed u thru no fault of ur own.

Respond to this and put on your Black History Page.
"Moving to consider". In other words...THINKING. They are not PLANNING on it. The state cannot afford it. Nor should any tax payer pay a dime for what they had zero responsibility for. Once again...this is a further divisive tactic.
We were not responsible for migrants. We're not responsible for Afghans. We're not responsible for ukraine but they all got paid millions.
Dont forget sbout Japanesse too
they already got it
Grifty blacktivities are afoot
We have all been enslaved by the lawmakers
I didnt know california had slaves
Reparations is not charity. $60 million in reparations is what the Jewish people got from France after the holocaust, 1.6 billion dollars in reparations is what the Japanese got after their internment.
I do not understand, and it makes me very frustrated that the American descendent of the enslaved in the United States did not get any compensation for the years of free labor their ancestors experienced, the discriminatory housing laws, the denial of benefits - such as the GI bill - to black veterans, and the terror rampage that black people experienced across the nation such as lynchings and burnings of entire towns. I’m so DONE. I’m just DONE.
Everything about this is gaslighting. Black Americans are being gaslighted into thinking we deserve nothing for giving everything. It makes me so sad
It's to be expected. I mean they even convinced themselves the civil war wasn't about slavery and at the same time say they fought to free us so that's reparations. That is who we deal with on a daily basis. We should know them well by now.
Restitution is not the same as Reparations. What about the Black tribes in Africa who captured and sold Africans to whites? What about the free Blacks who owed slaves? Finally, what about the Indian tribes who owned slaves, even after the end of the Civil war?

Unfortunately that wasn’t the experience for ALL black Americans. In addition, most BA worked beyond hard and the history proves that. Unfortunately, we’re the only community as a whole that’s been targeted. So when the checks and perks are given, you be sure to keep that same energy.
You have to continue the hard work on his behalf and search to find out what has your familys' name on it.

"Traded" in the continent of Africa then sold into chattel slavery. Not stolen. I believe ADOS should be granted free college education with requirements met and that certain other protections be put into place to prevent black from being treated as second class citizens especially in case where they meet the standards needed to conduct business on any level.
You've got to be joking right? How is this possible. I will say again, you better start with native Americans first!
But which Native Americans? Tribes were stealing and claiming land from other tribes well before Americans arrived.
They got their reparations. Ur late.

Cut the check!
Just maybe people making comments need to be more educated on this matter. It would help if American understood why reparations is needed, due to historical harm that has been done to black people. Americans have been poorly educated, the harm that white supremacy has done to those that build this country. There is so much hatred in this country it’s unreal toward black people.
Black people hate each other more than anyone. Stop blaming others for your shyt and fix things for yourself for once .
Education is not what they're looking for they just don't simply care. PERIOD
Less racism if you just go about your business. Scream in people's faces means more "racism"
@@LibertyOrBust this doesn’t make sense what are you trying to say? Do you care to elaborate or make yourself clear?
This was very composed and well put together. I agree. Education is key. The information is out there you just have to care enough to put it in schools or to seek it out individually. There has been a historical lack of concern with the “black”/indigenous position or experience in America however which is sad. change would be nice🤞🏾,but how wise would it be of us to sit around waiting for compassion and concern from people who historically NEVER CARED about us or much anything other than power and money lol… even white people will tell you they’re evil. Look at the comments. We just have to learn and grow. We know who we are dealing with. Any white people who don’t want to be evil anymore you’re more than welcome repent and come home, but u might have to pick a lil cotton 🤣🤣 since that 💩 is all jokey jokes now let’s put yal in the field and see how u like it 😏
Reparations: "Gimme free stuff"
You’re a clown and where are you from to be so ignorant? Reparations are a debt unpaid. The homestead act was free land handed to whites the welfare babies… the level in which you peasants attempt to bend history in your favor is laughable when u know the truth… the fucking squatters of the planet complaining about being evicted. At this point go back to the cave.
They should sue the individual family that enslaved them.
I think
you can do that.
Reparations for all the victims of crime.
Reparations is for the victims of slavery in the United States and Jim Crow.
But California never had slaves.
Ok if any slaves that didn't get pd the wages due to them back at the time ..they should be allowed to collect from the people that owned them!!...I never owned one so I ain't worried about it... And what about us Irish...we were more slaved than any one else
No, the United States government was at fault, and they are the ones who will pay for slavery and Jim Crow.
not one thin dime. suck it up. move on.

Go in order and start with native Americans and Mexicans first.
The damage done to Black people from slavery to Jim Crow was thousands of times greater than these groups that you name most Indians today are five dollar Indians.
tribes won a judgment of $7.5 million as just compensation for land taken by the United States government between 1891 and 1925.
In total 1.3 billion has been paid out
What a bunch of bums, earn your money like everyone else.
That's how we felt about the slave owners. Now we want our back pay. Deal with it
@@antwaino7318 slave owners weren’t all bums you moron, they were business men who ran a business. How do you think they had money to purchase a slave to begin with? From money they already earned maybe? Your comment comes off like Black people were the only ones who worked in America.Get the f out of here.
@@antwaino7318👈you are not a slave. This is not 170 years ago. You are owed nothing. Savvy?
@Semper_Iratus 1st of all the bs didn't stop at slavery. There's sharecropping, Jim crow, red lining, etc. All systemic and enforced by the US government. 2nd descendants of holocaust victims receive reparations, and so do descendants of native Americans.
@@antwaino7318 The slave owners are the only reason why you people are here in America, and not shit hole Africa where you belong. As soon as farming equipment was invented slaves became obsolete, outdated farm equipment.
