This isn’t even a coherent point on #ados. Reparations in the US is for enslavement of specific families and isn’t a gift to anyone BLACK. What points do these people think they are making when they write?

Of course!!! “Witness the controversial American Descendants of Slavery movement, which seeks reparations specifically for Black people who can show that their ancestors were enslaved in the United States, not elsewhere in the Black diaspora.”

She should just say she doesn’t agree with reparations and not villainize our owed debt. It’s a lineal debt. She should also attack inheritance as well though and next country citizenships globally that use lineage. Just go ahead and attack last names too. It’s ignorance.

My response remains the same.
@NewYorker #ados @ADOSorg — “When it comes to reparations, differences in black lineage matter”

💯

So again @NewYorker left out the reality that reparations are being demanded this way throughout the diaspora. CARICOM does not include #ados people.

I want to make sure everyone sees it straight on these people that make this argument against #ados & lineal cost are masking their position. They are really saying I don’t believe in American reparations & prefer a Black Agenda. They then call agenda items reparations to cover.
