The dems owned the slaves. Let them pay for it. still wondering how this doesn’t violate the civil rights actit’s not even separate but equal, it’s sorry whitey you don’t get anycalling it reparations is stupid too, the money can go to any farmer so long as they aren’t white which includes Natives, Asians, Latinos, ect.Do you guys think it may be because of the weird wealth gap leftover from much more than just slavery because decades of discrimination and oppression after slavery ended left it’s mark? Black people didn’t get to be citizens or own land until 1866. That kind of head start will have a lasting effect.It’s not like white peoples actively and publicly worked against black businesses and ownership until like 40 years ago.
