All White People Are Wealthy and Powerful; All Black People Are Poor and Weak

Civil War Dead Spotsylvania 1864

"he supports government reparations to African Americans to help reverse this inequality. 'It’s not enough to just stop wounding someone, but you actually have to heal someone and do something about the harm that you produced,'" Is it only white people, including poor white people, who are expected to pay reparations to black people? Or wealthy black multi millionaire athletes, celebrities and drug dealers too? Will wealthy black people give money to poor white people harmed by black people? Will powerful black persons provide affirmative action in employment and college admissions to poor white people? When does special privileges for black people who suffered no harm end? When will black people stop punishing white people who did no wrong? What about descendants of the 500,000 white men who died in a war to end slavery? When will they be healed? What is enough white bashing? When will white people being beaten, robbed, raped and murdered today by young white-hating black men, be compensated and healed? Will they get reparations too?
