Wherein you'll find:
Almost all land allocated during the war was restored to its pre-war white owners.


Usually by being purchased back. Whether the amount offered was fair or not is another question. Or whether the former slave understood the money value of the land. Also, there were islands where no plantations had formerly been which were parceled up in 40 acre lots. So when the former slaves sold these, they weren't being restored to former plantation owners. Nor can we know how many blacks were intimidated by forerunners of the KKK.

By simply saying the land was restored, it sounds like the government took it back to give to the former owners.

One fact history cannot deny is that Irish were used to do jobs that were too hazardous to take a chance on killing or injuring a valuable slave.

If a gang stole all you own, then killed you, then died and left their ill gotten gains to their children, would your children deserve compensation?


If the same occurred, would the neighbors of the gang owe compensation? How about someone who bought the home of the gang member from the children of the gangster? Would the new purchaser owe the children of the victim compensation?

One of my older cousins Took a trip to Virginia and Tennessee looking for our roots. On my fathers side his grandfather was the descendent of German slaves and I guess so am I. Seems a group of Germans had booked passage on a ship to the Americas. They stopped in London England and there the ships captain sold his passengers to pay off gambling debts. They arrived in New York and were made slaves for several decades. They eventually made it to Virginia and Tennessee and gained their freedom. My brother had a DNA test done and it turns out that we have bloodlines from a few African countries. There must have been some slave breeding or intermarriage going on. I'm part African. That's Cool ! I don't want anything for what my ancestors went through. I'm just happy to be a free American--Mutt that I am

I guess and I also have in archives where the women were brought for sex slaves and brothels and worse.

It’s just a horrific past and I’m seriously sick of all of it and the ones who tried to cover it up.

Believe it or not but the United States Government bought land in Africa and set up a Democrat Republic for all the slaves that wanted to return to their African roots.

The slaves got free transportation, tools, seeds, mules, cows and other animals to get them started. That country is now called Libya.

Semper Fi.


Yup. The plan was first proposed by Jefferson after he unsuccessfully attempted to emancipate his slaves. Turned that because he owed debt, the state of Virginia laws would allow any former slaves emancipated by Jefferson to be taken and sold for the debt. But Jefferson also continued to push for abolition. He wrote that he believed when slavery was abolished (which he was confident would happen sooner or later), the former slaves would not be accepted as equal citizens by the whites. Therefor he believed a country should be founded in Africa for the former slaves. His plan finally saw fruition after Republican Abe Lincoln's emancipation of the slaves.

Semper Forte

We’re just descendants of slaves on a plantation for the Queen / Crown and Vatican Holy See, Grand Master.

It’s all an Illusion, hence the IRS, Federal Reserve, IMF, League of Nations turned United Nations, BIS, ESF, Tri Laterals and CFR commissions to manipulate every academia, think tank and members for Policy shaping into a New World Order.


Good one. There truly is equality now. Everyone of every race, ethnicity, sex, or religion are equally slaves to the governing elite!

The way Progressives and many blacks speak and act one would come to believe everything is worse today than it was back in the days of slavery. And I'm sick of this too.

In times of war, many actions that are necessary for survival in retrospect seem cruel.
The international left has been working for 70 years to reverse the results of any war fought and won by America. And they want my apologies too?
Fokkem.

=================
The Democrats, liberals, socialists, and progressives are the NUMBER ONE enemies of the United States.

They want reparations for the blacks so that blacks will continue supporting them in every election. They are buying votes paid for by the American taxpayers.

Most of us became slaves in this country at the beginning, but we worked hard to overcome it.

Most of the blacks remained handouts, want the easy way. President Trump is the only president who've alleviated their situation. Obama used blacks to empower his own ambitions.
