> I'm also curious how far back these reparations are supposed to go, and where exactly the responsibility is supposed to lie. Should the people who 'employed' the slaves be responsible, or should the people who enslaved and sold them also be considered at fault? All those people are dead. The only entities left to sue are legal entities that aren't natural persons. > If the second, then note a lot of slaves were initially captured and sold to white slavers by their own kind. Then governments, corporations, etc. in Africa and Europe can be held to the same standard.
