In this modern society, where social issues reign supreme, ignorance has taken on a new voice. The debate over race and white supremacy has reached the point where the only people allowed to have an opinion on the matter are those who aren’t whites.
Lawrence Brown, an assistant professor in the Public Health Department at Morgan State University in Baltimore, is an activist who believes that African-Americans should receive reparations. He believes that America is segregated and that black people suffer from historical trauma brought on by white supremacy. In other words, he believes that modern white people are responsible for slavery.
It’s difficult to get into that argument and its falsehoods without writing several pages, but the argument can be summarized by these two questions:
What right do modern African-Americans have to claim offense at something they weren’t alive to be offended by?
Why should modern white people feel guilty for an act that they weren’t alive to commit?
You can’t atone for sins that you didn’t have anything to do with.
Read Lawrence Brown believes white people should do with their “unearned income” on the next page.
The Irish were the first slaves, black folks sold black to slave buyers. I dont owe them nothing, and why is it different when white people kill black than when black kill white people, in Chicago blacks killing little children while they play on their porch or in the park. the same in New York blacks killing blacks but that’s not wrong or big deal get the f— out of here with that b******t
I hope these niggers have their affairs in order. I guarantee they’re gonna be wishing they’d kept their greasy mouths shut.
Explain to me how my income, earned by my working 70 hour weeks, nights, weekends, and holidays, as a truck driver, dropping and hooking trailers in all kinds of weather should be yours? Eff off.
Oh, and Open Society? Soros.
Sorry, but the legacy off slavery lived on in Jim Crow, lynchings, disenfranchisement, and discrimination, which have led to multi-generational poverty amongst the black citizens of the United States that continues to today. Universal Black Suffrage was not achieved until 1965 – as this is within my memory, I assume it is within the memory of many African-Americans. Likewise, the benefits bestowed upon Euro-Americans by the system of slavery continue to today. Before you can argue for or against reparations, you must at least deal with historical facts, which this article ignores. Your two ‘questions’ are specious and stink of bigotry.
Why is every idiot that speaks an ignorant rant given a public platform to spread their divisive stupid? Because regardless the race, people aren’t your enemy, the divisive corrupt media that are controlled. By globalist who want to use your hate and anger as a tool to reach their agenda is. Turn them all off, including truthandaction.org and go talk to your neighbor.
Well he can have my unearned wealth too, which is $0.00. I’m lucky I get bills paid. I don’t have any extra money to pay someone who wasn’t a slave first off, and I’m not about to pay for something my family had no part in. He can keep dreaming. Besides, not all slaves were black so they need to start thinking about that as well. Are they going to share that money with the people that weren’t black?
Funded by Whites…really…!?
Are u just that ignorant that u think we need to put our hard earned money in an account for u. Hell no. We have kids and grandkids that will get my money. And to blame the current white people because of slaveryism. Not even close. All of this racist nonsense is getting way out of hand and needs to stop
I’ll provide you a one way ticket back to Africa where you can continue to kill each other instead of in the USA
Surprisingly, or maybe not, you sound just as stupid as he does.
