[align=center]Hi i see all of your replies but it seems that you're just quoting other resources, what do you as people think. you sound like robots with your quotes. This isnt a court case, damn.[/align]
[align=center]Can i be devil's advocate and remind you that reparations have been paid for other causes. e.g. holocaust, and the U.S. has paid Japan reparations for discrimination against the japanese during vietnam.[/align]
[align=center]Also, as i believe it, the reparations movement isnt asking for money from individual peoples, its from governments i.e. the national treasuries that would have no doubt benefited from it. why do you think america became such a big economy?, call me a cynical but i believe slavery had a little to do with it.[/align]
[align=center]and to dismiss slavery as a thing of the past is ignorant. the lagacy of it still lives on for example through rascim.[/align]
[align=center]( having said this i still dont agree with reparations) Opinions speak louder than facts. does anybody here personnaly feel short changed by slavery?[/align]
