I’m sorry maybe I’m missing the forest for the trees here, did you answer the question of when black Americans will be responsible for themselves? I am all for reparations to be clear, I think the impact of slavery has put them at a severe disadvantage (perhaps stifling their ability to ever climb out of socioeconomic situations) but to fully support the idea I need to know what the plan is. At what point is everyone’s potential considered equal? If the answer is “never” then obviously reparations is not a valid solution and could even be considered harmful (if we look at “potential” as “acceleration” then at some point increasing that value will cause the “velocity” to become so great that we end up right back where we started with some demographic far beyond the rest)
