Quite frankly, newdiva1, I wouldn't even be mad if one day our educational system were centralized like it is in a lot of other successful nations. With centralized education, all schools get the same amount of funding and the same education. All teachers have roughly the same (relatively high) salaries.

 I prefer the no tax and good educational systems ideas. That's a good base.

This was my initial turning point from Obama
[QUOTE=pattigurlatl]
And for those who think racism is no longer relevant, look at the compromises Obama had to make to win the presidency such as speaking out against reparations and throwing his own pastor the Reverand Jeremiah Wright under the bus. The compromises continue in the Obama cabinet, which has plenty of room for white mediocrities such as Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner. Judging by the racial makeup of the cabinet, there is only one fellow African-American, Attorney General Eric Holder, competent enough to advise our President. |
Most ppl aren't even aware of this...Or maybe they don't even care..

Well lookee here. Ain't this a shame....the computers had a fucc up and 80-90% of historical records have been "lost". |

Sorry. But don't think that the entire slave industry was the fault of
Africa. The fault is them agreeing to the first transactions. After they
put laws in place and tried to fight slavery, white business owners
rampaged their lands and kidnapped Africans by the hundreds of thousands
only to bond them, their children and their children's children for all
their living days.

I also think we shouldn't have to pay taxes. We did not choose to come here. If they won't give us the money they owe us, then they need to make it easier for us to accumulate wealth the easiest way possible. |
I actually agree with this. Tax free lives could tip the scales more in our favor. And it would be a payback of sorts. And
all anyone need now is DNA evidence to prove it. It's how they proved
Thomas Jefferson raped his 15 year old slave half-sister in law. But
some of his white descendants still deny it.

And weren't the first slaves sold the outcast and criminals of the tribes? I remember reading that somewhere. Don't know if it's true.

I'm not looking for a handout, I just want equality. Demanding reparations is foolish because it will never happen.
