The website, started by Seattle-based “conceptual artist” Natasha Marin, suggests a number of ways in which white people can atone for the fact that 1.4 per cent of white people owned black slaves in the United States over 150 years ago.
Examples on the site’s ‘about’ page include;
POC 3: I need groceries.
White Person 3: “I’ll get them for you. PM me and I’ll send an Amazon Fresh or Safeway delivery. You just pick out what you want. I have a $200 limit.”
POC 4: I’m too upset to make dinner. I live in Seattle.
White Person 4: “Come over to my house for dinner, bring a friend if you like. PM me and I’ll send you the address, or can I order delivery to you? What kind of food do you like?”
POC 6: I want to scream and cuss at someone.
White Person 6: “I volunteer as tribute. How do we set this up?”
POC 7: I want to escape this cruel world in a *Specific Videogame* but can’t afford it on Steam right now. This is not a crisis, I just don’t trust people easily and want to see if this works.
White Person 7: Thank you for giving me the chance to do something concrete and relatively easy. I was quietly hating myself for doing nothing.
Numerous white people beset with self-loathing have already offered a number of goods and services, including the free use of a car, house cleaning, massages, “catharsis,” and straight-up cold hard cash.
Black people have also posted messages on the site with requests for free laptops, a Kindle EBook Reader and recording studio access.
“I want my project fully funded or at least my phone paid for from here till December so I can stay in Boriken writing about Amerikkkan colonialism,” another man demands on the ‘Reparations’ Facebook page.
Someone else asks for recording studio time so they can record, “an album entitled “White Boys” to vent out my frustration on, well, white boys.”
Before you say it, no this is not a joke, despite the fact that it’s absolutely hilarious. Every offer or request on the website links to the individual’s personal Facebook profile.
Marin says the website is a way for white people to “extricate themselves from the guilt they are mired in” but that it is in “no way a pardon for years of systemic abuse” (presumably Marin is not talking about the kind of “systematic abuse” that leads to figures like white people being 27 times more likely to be violently attacked by black people than vice-versa).
Of course no one really needs to take this seriously, but liberals do, so the nonsense continues unabated. The entire reparations for slavery issue actually should have been put to bed long ago, with the facts clearly showing that reparations are an outlandish demand should be reversed, given the tremendous costs and problems these demanding phonies have cost our nation. And one of the all-time classic beggars of all time, the United Nations has also taken to demanding that white America pay reparations to blacks who have suffered no wrong, and are generally not even descendants of slaves.
The United Nations, of course, could administer the program and scrape off a healthy fee for doing so. The answer to all of these lazy, entitled whiners is quite clear. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps, accept some responsibility for your own plight and destiny, stop bothering people, and get a job.
But for Natasha Marin, who started this ridiculous website, I simply have no recommendations, other than perhaps to join the circus and become a bizarre side show performer. Her picture is found below. Hopefully they will have a tent big enough for her act.
The concept will no doubt be lauded by ‘Black Lives Matter’ organizer Ashleigh Shackelford (pictured below), who has written a series of articles demanding that white people give her money for being a “fat black bitch”
After explaining how she was triggered by white people attending BLM rallies, Shackelford said that that they would be better served writing checks and giving up their car keys.
Reparations.me as well as Marin’s Facebook page gives white guilt-ridden leftists the chance to do precisely that.
Larry Elder has quite a different take
Thanks. I needed a good laugh!
For all those seeking reparations: Please by all means, take your ass back to Africa and see how long you last there and when you come back you will have a better appreciation for the greatest country on the planet.
Would you like to pay back the £40bn cost to the British taxpayers who paid to end slavery 200 odd years ago and reparations for the families of the 17.000 British sailors of the royal navy who lost their lives ending slavery world wide in the empire and forcing all the other countries to end it. It brought about the Lincoln declaration.
Also reperations for the British taxpayers cost to introduce new economies in the slave states to stop the black slave kingdom’s from enslaving their own people and selling them.
Also why are you not fighting for the freedom of the 40.3 million modern slaves majority of whom are in black and Asian countries.
I have fought for black and ethnic people all my life and I have hundreds of friends of colour who do not agree with you.
It is you who are the racist and fascist by your very actions and attitudes.
They have played the race game long enough. Now that they have the County in one big mess go get a job.
They can stick it, lazy shits!
I’ll pay you with monopoly money,and that is free!!!
No one in my family ever owned slaves…No one alive was ever a slave but if there are some they are the only ones that deserve reparations not their relatives that were never a slave..
someone want to explain to me why United States has been paying reparations to the jewish familes here in United States for the holocaust so those white people are getting it from us & Germany …….seems fair
Well I just left my down payment but I had to wipe and flush so good luck with that
I would gladly pay them $1000 then charge them $999 for the boat ride to America.
