    I am not offering any money! I am offering you to go to Africa and then find out how quick you decide to come back to the "racist" US.

    I would want ALL African-Americans to receive the reparations, not just myself. And the others would not be required to return to Africa if they didn't want to.
    Deal? :handshake:

    Any black that wants the deal could take it. Reparations and move to Africa. Now once again would you take that offer? Quit dodging

    :icon_picknose: Let me think about it. In the meantime, start collecting the reparations money.

    And what would the basis be for you to gleefully accept reparations that you feel are DUE to you? You were NEVER a slave, your parents were never slaves. When you spend all the money, what will ********* about next?

    The Jews were a leading factor in the slave trade, especially in South America. They were also major gun runners to the Indians.

    What’s obvious here is you couldn’t be paid enough to leave America for Africa and despite all your rhetoric you are glad to be in America and thankful you’re not in Africa. Learn anything today?

    Thanks for the conversation, folks. I won't be coming back to this thread.
    Practice social distancing. Wear a mask when in public places. Wash your hands frequently.
    Have a nice evening. Bye.

    Which country would you move to? I think that most American blacks have ties to multiple area in Africa as well as to Europe. Maybe you would be more at home in Ireland or in England than in some place in Africa.

    I'll bet that a lot of whites who post on this forum have black ancestors. In the old days people couldn't tell a white person from a black person.
    trump is asking Putin for political asylum in Russia. Putin said that he can move to a town in SIberia but trump wants to bunk out in Moscow.

    Every country in Africa is a **** hole compared to most of the world
    the highest Human Development Index which is is a summary measure of average achievement in key dimensions of human development: a long and healthy life, knowledge, and a decent standard of living the highest in Africa is Algeria at .85
    and to put that in context the lowest State in America is 3.81

    in other words the worst place in America is four and half times better then the best place in Africa

    and lastly Algeria isnt really a black populated country the vast majority are Mediterranean and Middle Eastern

    So you get an income? So whatever you do to get that isn't done out if greed but altruism? So you'd do it for free?

    She said bye for tonight so I guess this thread got overwhelming from all the sensible questions, just my guess. Also my guess is she is a young girl trying to figure out what angle to play, victim or one who overcomes the perceived adversity.

    Maybe I'm just a jerk for thinking greed drives humanity. It always has and it probably always will.

    You would have to define greed to make that case. Am I greedy? Hell yes! When it comes to eating or not damn right!

    Good catch. So Abe went to war for no practical reason.

    Also, have you checked out the prices of a slave in that era? I believe about $1,000 up to $1,500.

    I have no problem as a Southerner with confederate statues being taken down from govt property..

    But the founding fathers? Yep a big problem with that.

    Moving to Africa would be a huge mistake for any american. Unless you are rich and your money gets you in with the ruling class.

    You might end up a slave or being forced to work in the diamond and gold fields.

    There is a black university professor who laughs at the term African American.
