This video is shocking and hurtful to watch, but an important part of black history. We bring these things to you because there is a reason that they aren’t taught in the school system. Over hundreds of years of slavery, there are countless untold stories about unbelievable amounts of suffering, and the pain is not diminished by silence.
Keep studying black history, you’re going to find a lot of things out that your teacher never taught you. Also, please be sure to share this with your children and anyone else who wants to know. The Internet era is an opportunity for black people to regain the history that has been stolen from us. Watch the video all the way through, no matter how painful it might be, and then take a second to wonder if you think that we deserve reparations.
As a Finance professor, I can tell you that, without question, African Americans deserve reparations more than any other group in the history of this country. A plan is implementable if we choose to move forward….but we have to give our politicians a little “shove.”
