Yeah, she's kinda out of date with that one. It sounded so 1980s.
Btw, my family actually got it's "40 acres and a mule." The plantation owner was our father....LOL! Seriously. My maiden name is the name of this historical plantation. I was brought up very close to it and everybody knows this in the community. Strangely, they treat you like royalty? People's eye (white and black) widen in awe?

No, it belongs to a historical preservation society. We were given many acres of land... almost a whole town. The plantation is a major tourist attraction.
My maternal grandfather's home also belongs to a historic preservation society.click to expand

the bolded literally makes no sense..
nobody is making young blacks believe anything other then what they see & live..and nobody is saying that today's problems in our community is ALL because of white supremacy..but it sure as hell played a significant role in it, and the denial of that is part of the problem..
and you wouldn't know it, but its 100's of thousands of black people living good in America,despite of all of the negativity, so don't think for a second that everybody is living miserable around here with their hand out..but we do in fact deserve reparations for the free work that was done for over 400 years to help build a country full of people that hate us, form hate groups because of us, systematically excluded us, along with the crooked, barbaric, demonic cops who continue to shoot us down in the streets.
