Repatriation Forum

Re: In Defense of Black Reparations

Let us not be naïve about the Black Reparation/Restitution issue. The Black race will never be funded the way Jews, Native Americans, Japanese, Palestinians and other survivors of atrocities are being funded. Because because racist inspired command of limitations make very sure that Blacks are limited in their capacity to obtain justice. We Black people are always being ridiculed as outlandish and impractical, often called "racists", if we demand Justice that is the dignity of our race to the governments and political organizations of the American nation, the British parliament, France or any states of our former slave masters and colonists. The destruction of Saddam Hussein government warrants Western powers to use of Billions of dollars to rebuild it, compare that to the destruction of the Black race, guess how many billions should be used to rebuild our nations. That's why I think Blacks will never actually be funded with reparations because every racist practice and policies detrimental to Black folk is simply not recognized as crimes nowadays as in the past when they are being overtly practice. Should the reparations debate go on however? Frankly, I think that fixing our problems require our own work without the necessity of the process in accepting inconsequential cash from white folk. IMO, no sane Black Afrocentric/Nationalist person should except to receive any money give-away or other options of "repair" from the same race who imposed the original limitations on Blacks to be allowed to enforce the current circumstances as to why Blacks cannot challenge past and present limitations. I take that seriously into account.
