I doubt that any of us has ever met a American slave, let alone been damaged by American slavery. Has anyone else ever wondered why cries for slave reparations never includes repatriation?

You can't be serious. You pull folks out of their language and knowledge (of how to do things like obtain food and where to live) for several generations, and expect that they will want to be sent into a situation/place where they can't speak the language etc?

Did you disagree with reparations for the Japanese internment during WWII? Do you disagree that the gubmint effectively killed these people's livelihoods by either direct confiscation of their land/businesses or hamstringing them vs their competition (which continued business for 4-5 years while they were locked up)?

While I am sure there are people who want a handout, barriers exist even for those who just want an opportunity to compete.

PS "White" folk aren't alone in any "reverse discrimination". When I went to college in Kalifornia, asian males were not on the "preferred list" because there were too many (by population percentage) in the system.

Edited for grammar.
