So, as part of reparations are they planning on paying off the families of slave owners who had their property seized by the government?

It’s funny how that never gets talked about. At that time slaves were property, and were worth money, but when they were (rightly) personified the people who had owned them prior were never compensated.

If this sounds absurd, giving money to people who’s ancestors were enslaved is also just as absurd.

I wish they’d let the stupid reparations bullshit die already. It’s never gonna happen, and if it does it’ll split the black community down the middle, when half of them find out their ancestors actually OWNED slaves, and they ain’t gettin paid.
