Are you in favor of reparations to African Americans?

14. Like Senator Sanders, I would like details about how reparations would be

done. Do we hand each African American that has at least one parent that descended from slaves x dollars? What does an AA whose both parents descended from slaves get? Instead of giving each AA that fall into one of the group's above money, should the money instead be put in an "investment" fund so that money gets invested in AA communities? If the money goes into a fund, how will leaders of that fund be chosen and what metrics will be used to guage whether they are using the money for it's intended purposes?

There are just so many questions around reparations. I would rather we focus on stomping out systemic racism and police brutality, people guilty of either should pay with their freedom and/or job security.

If one looks at metrics, AA wealth is something like 66-78% of that of Whites, eventhough the weight of systemic and hot racism has been a constant for AA. My argument is that when the racism is removed, African Americans as a group have the intelligence, creativity, and determination to eliminate the wealth and other gaps, without reparations. Really vile conduct toward AA over 150+ years could not break the group, I doubt that future uncertainties sans racism will be able to.
