Interesting read. I’m not a fan of the latest reparations being part of political debates. I also feel any financial compensation more than a 150 years later makes no sense. All I want is guarantees that governments at all levels will ensure any further violations of one’s civil rights will stop being violated. We need serious criminal justice reform.

Can we skip reparations and get General Dynamics to end their now SIX YEAR campaign to block me from employment (in their effort to get me to make more Billions for them in the mid-Atlantic rather than work in Southern California). Please?

Right there with you. My family is American Indian, Hispanic, African American and Caucasian. On my mother's side I am only second generation American and on my Dad's, 3rd generation. What should our reparations charge be? Do we get a discount for the African American portion? Does the American Indian portion eliminate the entire bill? How much do we get for the African American portion? This seems totally impossible to calculate and therefor impractical
