That's... a really dumb take even for this cesspool of a website.

So, just to clarify, some poor schmuck working for minimum wage should forfeit their earnings because someone in their family owned slaves 200 years ago?
Ok, let's just follow this "logic" to its end. So, now we https://twitter.com/duke9678/status/1323243529590759424
need to travel everyone back to colonial days and make them pay up as well.

Then, we can travel back to Rome, hell let's get real detailed and travel back to Egypt. I bet some Jewish people might like reparations from Egypt because of a pharoah thousands of years ago.

And THEN
You can try to work out whether those of mixed race receive or pay. You do realize a lot of black folks today can travel their ancestry back to slave owners due to rape right?

Or that most families and people that have been here since before 1865 are very mixed when it comes to
the lineage of the modern American.

That doesn't even begin to consider how you reconcile any blacks that originally sold others into slavery and were eventually trafficked themselves.

Do they get like a 50% reduction?
