I accept that you don't support it but that doesn't change the rightness of it. Our ancestors (and us) from before 1776-present have been denied mountains of investment. I am the first generation in my family to be born without a law requiring my family's segregation or enslavement. The first...its 2023.

America has given white people mountains of free handouts at our expense and at the specific and intentional exclusion of American Freedmen. We built a nation, have been here longer than just about everybody else including before this was an independent country, and are one of the oldest citizen groups of the nation.

As such, American Freedmen should be richer than just about every white person in it. We should be the 1%.

The actual amount owed to us is $6.2 Quadrillion just for labor...which is $151 million PER American Freedmen. We've been denied $16 trillion from 2000-2020 alone due to anti-Black discrimination.

Five million is a deal. In reality, we should settle for nothing less than $6.2 quad over time and that number is the appropriate starting point for repair.
