Yea, that money was paid to LIVING survivors, NOT descendants. It was also unconstitutional to detain citizens without due process, as established by supreme court in 1944. This means the japanese, at the time, were recognized as citizens, with rights when they were unlawfully detained. Slaves didnt have rights nor were they recognized as citizens. Japanese internment and slavery are not equivalent. They are completely independent of each other with different dynamics.

Well if that was the case you would have to literally date back every single person’s family that benefitted from slavery, because there is evidence that every single race has benefitted from slavery. And also every single race has also been enslaved in America. So what happens if my moms side owned slaves but my dads side was enslaved. What happens there? Left pocket paying the right pocket? It’s way to complicated. America isn’t responsible for slavery, slavery has been around for 3500+ years, way before European countries adopted it, the only thing America is responsible for is making slavery a racial one, but even before it turned racial they had I believe around one million white slaves to 8-9 million blacks slaves, once blacks and whites teamed up then it became racial, so slavery was initially a classism issue turned racist.

This is an example of #4 Top 10 Techniques used to CONCEAL the system of white supremacy racism: 1. Denying: totally ignoring racism or simply asserting that racism does not exist. 2. Deflecting: insisting that any inequality is based on class, culture, ethnicity, family values… anything, but race. Or using words like “diversity” or “ethnicity” when you’re really talking about race -- because any acknowledgement of race may be an admission that there’s racism. 3. Coding: using certain words, symbols and images to evoke racial fears--but not explicitly mentioning race--so as not to appear racist. (Words such as “gang member,” “illegal alien,” and “welfare queen”--all frequently associated with images of people of color--are routinely and strategically inserted into policy debates. Political ads--such as President Bush Sr.’s use of the Willie Horton ad to conjure up white fears of black men, or former California Governor Pete Wilson’s ads of undocumented immigrants--were racist tools used to win elections.) 4. Confusing: cleverly having people of color act as spokespersons or leaders to promote and justify racist measures or deny that something is racist. 5. Personalizing: blaming individuals, instead of institutions, for anything that may seem unequal or racist. 6. Exceptionalizing: acknowledging that there may be an extremist or “bad apple” responsible for a racist act, but never conceding that there is any institutional accountability or systemic inequality. 7. Scapegoating: holding people who are adversely affected by racism responsible for their own plight, blaming things on their “pathological” value and lifestyles, such as laziness, promiscuity or lack of “personal responsibility.” 8. Mythologizing: appealing to the great American myths: anyone who tries can succeed (myth of meritocracy); everyone/everything is equal (myth of the level playing field), or race is irrelevant (colorblind myth), etc. 9. Decontextualizing: ignoring the context of racism so that things appear to be isolated incidents, rather than part of a pattern or bigger picture. The evening television news is notorious for this, portraying, for example, a violent crime in a black neighborhood without any examination of the causes or.context. Similarly, when white people raise charges of so-called “reverse racism,” it ignores history, white privilege and the ongoing existence of a very uneven playing field. 10. Lying: simply asserting that racism doesn’t exist even when you know it does. It’s easier to lie since telling the truth might mean having to admit responsibility. In fact, sometimes the bigger the lie, the more people believe it. ***New Hip Hop Music Link*** Prelude to Serenity playlist kzitem.info/door/PLpCFDKDAJtem-6IJBdvTXNo9MCkeZG2Ws

It's also about what happened after slavery. 3 major affirmative action by the govt that created wealth and helped build/create white the middle class. 1) the Homestead act of 1962. Applicant could acquire ownership of government land or the public domain, typically called a homestead. In all, more than 160 million acres of public land, or nearly 10 percent of the total area of the United States, was given away free to 1.6 million homesteaders 2) GI Bill 1944. For education after WW2 3)VA/FHA 1944. Home loan for small business and home ownership. only about 2-4% went to non whites, because of they were written. The 1950s saw the boom of the white only suburbs and creation of wealth, through home ownership. So when people talk about I didn't own slaves and you weren't a slaves Don't fall into that trap, because regardless of slavery white people had the advantage of those affirmative action programs. One solution besides a direct payment is. Put money back into the public school system in Urban areas. Give low to no interest loan on small business and homes. Lower credit scores since many bank and credit cards unfairly gave us higher rates which caused more foreclosures among black people that whites. That's a start. Banks will always make money.

4:59 This is a fair point. The issue, though, becomes fraught. Slavery was just one part of an ongoing policy of disenfranchisement. Making the case that any present-day claim is immoral sounds reasonable in the abstract, but works in reality to further enable policies that disenfranchise along racial lines. Similarly, a reparations claims seems to be very limited in its scope in the abstract, but the working out of reparations in policy, law, and social custom forces a confrontation of the factors that contribute to racial oppression. I think Hughes is mostly sincere, but philosophy is not just about universal moral imperatives, but about understanding human behavior in context. His arguments are more a pass than a moral argument.

But really, Mr. Hill is a Ph.D holding Professor and Mr. Coleman is a recent Columbia grad and Fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research and a fellow and contributing editor at their City Journal.

Both Hill and Hughes articulated their points well except that the subject of reparations is rarely framed accurately during these discussions. First, positioning recompense as an exchange between White and Black (ADOS) Americans as "individuals" is just wrong and doesn't get to the crux of what U.S. chattel slavery was about. American slavery was a governmental and legally sanctioned SYSTEM. And it took constitutional powers (13th, 14th & 15th amendments) to upend slavery's hold on Black Americans. Reparations were given after slavery.....just not to the enslaved but to their captors. And therein lies the problem, generationally Black folk never inherited an "estate." The idea of the "estate" is addressed and paid out all the time during these modern times....why is this debatable now? One's forbears do leave "things" (money, assets, property, assets, etc.) to their antecedents. What could a "repaired" slave have left future generations? There is such a "compounded interest" equation to the loss of wealth and opportunity based on slavery (and 100 years of Jim Crow laws) which is never-ending. This should be discussed among legal historians and economists to REALLY get a comprehensive notion of what has been extracted from Black American labor-antebellum AND postbellum. #afronerdradio

That’s sort of his point, that policy based on actually helping people in poverty and disadvantaged situations would be a better way forward as well as have the solution built into it. If you have an area where 5X as many black families are in poverty, and you have a policy that targets poverty, then by design black families would receive 5X as much. Personally, I’m not opposed to reparations. I think America owes a debt and needs to pay up. However, Coleman’s arguments are sound.

Coleman does not know what he is talking about and he can continue to cite from other Scholars it does not mean anything. First of all you have people in their teens right now still follow the Constitution, Declaration of Independence and sing the Pledge of allegiance of the flag that was created 200 years ago! If the 1980's Black's can't receive Reparations for being 5th generation. Then my questions is why are we still following the Constitution, The Declaration of Independence and Pledge of allegiance? The last time I checked, these laws and songs were created 200 years by Slave owners and now we have 5th, 6th, and 7th generation still following these laws. Secondly how can we talk about morals when we had people working from sunup to sundown without pay, whipped, raped and had to have sex with their own family members. Then did you know that slave owners were paid "Reparation" for freeing the slaves. After that you had Reconstruction where Freemen were given land because they were promised 40 acres & a Mule, than it was taken back by the Confederates who "LOST" the Civil War. After that Free slaves had to pay debt to leave the plantation it was known as Sharecropping, which they could never get out of debt. Next they put in place Black Codes "Policing" and Jim Crow "Separate but Equal" laws to get around the 13th, 14th,15th Amendment and the Civil Rights Act of 1864. Now let me talk about World War I where the Germans had to pay back Reparation to the French/Britain for causing the war and guess who helped the Germans pay back Reparations "America" it was known as the Dawes Act look it up Cole!." Let's not forget about World War 2 where white soldiers were given the G.I. Bill but guess who did not get to prosper from the G.I. Bill Black's because of Segregation/Redlining. I just seen a story about a Black couple who appraisal was below Market value for their home but soon as a White man act like he was the owner of the home the value increased.I had to laugh because he said that the ones who were born in the 80' were not affected by the drama from Slavery well I guess Coleman never heard of Willie Lynch Letter where you have blacks hating other Black's due to their skin color or Black Males Vs. Black Females causing a divide in the Family that been going on for hundreds of years now. The Willie Lynch Letter was designed to have Black's hate one another while being loyal to Whites. This is why you have more Black Families growing up in a single household mostly lead by a Black Woman that leads to Black's not trusting authority. Then in the 80's many Blacks died due to the Crack Cocaine Era that was infiltrated by white spreading the drug into the Black Community. Let's not talk about the Civil Rights Act of 1965 and the War on Poverty better known as the "Great Society by Lyndon B. Johnson that missed the mark to close the wealth gap between Whites and Blacks in America. In 2021 we have Whites who have 10 times the wealth than Blacks to every White Family they have $100,000 to a Black Family $17,000 this 5th Generations are still being affected by Slavery to this day. Reparations can take care of better schools, affordable healthcare and Police Policy by giving Black's three things one will be Home Ownership, Second Free Education and the Third will be Entrepreneurship those will take care of all the issue Black America is facing today. Let's be clear this is not a hand out from the Government or White People it's the money for Slaves who worked for free, it's the Freedman who fought during the Civil War who put their money in Banks and their money was stolen from these Banks, and the Black's who did not get a chance to prosper from the G.I. Bill for fighting in WW2 due to Segregation! Let's talk about the Jews first of all American had a opportunity to help the Jews during WW2 but America decided not to let the Jews into America because of a Immigration Quota. So guess what happen Jews moved to Jerusalem where Palestine live because of the Holocaust now what is happening right now with the Middle East is a never ending battle between Israel and Palestine since Coleman said Jews have no connection to their Ancestors.Coleman stop citing other people findings and do your own research to find out your History! The Prison system is a new form of Slavery cheap labor help the wealthy become more rich. No, Colman it did not start with th 70's but it continued with Nixon in the 70', in the 80's it was Reagan, Bush Sr and the 90's it was Bill Clinton with the three strike law. It started after slavery by keeping Freedmen in peonage by putting them in prisons because Freedman needed papers from another white person to travel this method "Black Codes" was used to continue to have cheap labor to get around the 13th Amendment. Reparation is a problem solver to the problem we are facing with schooling, bad communities and poverty. How do you know it want solve a problem Blacks are facing? Coleman is going off speculation just like how people are going off speculation with Dogecoin in the Stock Market! Coleman why you did not bring up Stockton California where the Mayor gave $1000 to lower income Communities that allow majority of the community to use that money to pay for things that gave them an opportunity to get things done to improve their lives. How about this Coleman before we decide to have a color blind society let's correct the wrongs"Crimes of History" of this country first by using Reparations.

@@lonnsoworld8976 - I guess you’re right, there isn’t two sides. If you want the money from rich families go get it from them, not from poor families of all races. And you also want the ancestors of northern soldiers who gave their life to free your ancestors, so how ridiculous of a concept is that.

1) Marc Lamont Hill maybe one of our most professional journalists today 2) Coleman Hughes is proof of the psychological impact slavery is still having today 3) Great analogy if you owe my great(x3) grandparents money from unpaid labor then you still owe it to their estate i.e. his family and descendants

Coleman Hughes is half puerto rician (black Boriqua) and half black american. So he seems crossed up to me.

I just saw a video of hispanic trump supporters along the Texas border complaining about undocumented immigrants some of whom were their parents 🤦🏾♂️ So, white supremacy affects the brain in strange ways across the board

Good dialogue . The argument against reparations , no matter how eloquent and structured is still mind blowing to me considering the treasure trove of empirical data out there today connecting contemporary plight to historical atrocity . But I’m proud of Black people … even without reparations we have risen to heights through our own will and self determination , against insurmountable odds , that our ancestors would be proud of .

@@JC_inc this is stupid dialogue and that fool’s real name is Coleman Crews! He is not ADOS and has no business discussing reparations! He has no knowledge of the subject or any right to reparations because his family’s linage does not go back to the killing fields of the south.

Mr. Coleman sounds intelligent yet its quite clear he lacks understanding of the damages of a people, as a continuium which lingers today. And, I hardly believe that Mr. Coleman truly understand the repairative damages which need to be corrected for the soul of a people, as well as the need for a moral cleansing of those who caused the damage. Reparations are essentially the pathway to actual peace and harmony.

Why does Coleman have a platform? Who the hell is he? Also, we've been calling for reparations for decades, it is not our fault that the system refuses to hear our claims and are waiting for generations to past. That is inherently apart of the problem and apart of their strategy.

Funny how laws and policies got passed that were harmful to only certain groups, but correcting it requires laws and policies that are broad and encompass multiple groups. 😒
