The dumb ones speak again. The logic for reparations is that the blacks have been held back from equal opportunities by state, local and national policies since they were freed. I bet you heard of Jim Crow, lynching, and the black massacres of Tulsa, Wilmington, Atlanta, Elaine and Rosewood. The blacks had developed economic institutions and entertainment and shopping only to have whites burn them down and kill many blacks. To suggest they did not have their wealth destroyed and have to start over with nothing is right wing talk.
In modern times the monetary suppression was more subtle with redlining, police and legal abuse by the institutions.
Schools are supported by property taxes. Can you guess which schools are rolling in funds?
I know it helps some whites to pretend we are blameless in what happened to keep blacks down. It helps assuage your guilt.
There is an argument for reparations.
