      But they say "we didn't own slaves" as if we can't trace the money. Also for those who have ears: You do know this land is being blessed b/c we're here. Black Wall street and other successful black towns let them know our God Yah can take a little in our hands and bless it to increase. They want us dependant on them. They are not stupid they know they get the increase as long as we are attached to them. Only Yah can deliver us. Repent, pray, read your Bible and live holy. It's almost time to go HOME.

      so many well said comments and think about this is the land buildable and if so, what for accorrding to that county or city department of planning and zoning? Does the land have to rezoned to built single family homes? Does that involve going before a rezoning board and a application? What are the fees? Unless a family has developers and builders in the family, what could the use of the land?

      The land is NOT the governments to sell. How can you sell something that is not rightfully yours??? If you purchase the land you're only the caretaker of the land, that's why when you purchase land you will get a deed and not a title. A deed is not a instrument of ownership but falls within the grounds being the caretaker... A title is a receipt of ownership not a deed. If the land is yours why would you still pay taxes on it? Why do you need permission to construct upon it? We have to become thinkers, it's BIGGER then the land!

What about on the black so that was destroyed. Property and home stolen. Black family ran out of their home in Sundown town. Do you agree that that also deserves reparation. Please stop talking about reparations for the descendants of slaves. They were masterful in destroying lineages. They changed our names so many times. They also Enslaved the black indigenous people of this land. How could you possibly Trace back your lineage? This is another bulshit tactic to pacify black people. They changed our names they kidnapped us impregnated the women. Sold the children to other Plantations
      Be realistic this is just another tactic to separate us the majority of the descendants of slaves cannot prove they are descendants of slaves so that would mean that they are not deserving of reparation. You black people would take anyting to pacify yourself

    From the beginning, the vast majority of Americans always opposed African slavery. Hundreds of thousands of Americans died in the war that ended slavery. It seems only right and fair for these descendants of these freed slaves to pool their money and gift each family of any Union soldier 40 acres and a Lexus. Those are the people who earned it. Taxing someone's family who had a family member fight and die for the freedom of the slave to pay reparations for the slavery they died ending is an absurd obscenity. But here we are, the people who ended most of the slavery on the planet are now supposed to pay for ending it.

There’s no way that the nations and established leadership that was here already got killed off through what they call thanksgiving. That was one incident that paints the narrative that the people just went away. But the brown, tan and yellow people that were already here is still us.

    Once I realized it was not coming. I got my 15k acres and built a lake of my own. I still want my other 40 acres!
