His Monopoly analogy should apply ONLY to the white people who have been playing the Monopoly game for a long time. If a new white person came in to play the game at the same time as the black person came, or after the black person came, then that new white person should NOT feel obligated to make any reparations to the black person because he was not responsible for any of the disadvantages that the black guy experiences. If the new white player decides to help the black new player, then that is a very good Christian attitude, but to blame the new white player and attribute responsibility to him for past wrongs that he didn't commit is wrong.
@@GILGAMESH-Nero Btw, other recent newcomers to the Monopoly game (Koreans, Japanese, Indians, Filipinos, Jamaicans, etc) have become "winners" within one to two generations because they stress education, intact families and hard work. If they can succeed so quickly, then why don't the blacks who have been here much longer? Because they fail to assume responsibility or to make wise choices. Over 70% of black babies are to women who have chosen to have a baby while not having a husband. That is the biggest problem.
@@mydh122 Yep, that's really sad. If people would just follow what the bible says, and wait until marriage, to have kids, they wouldn't be in the situation that their in.
@@mydh122 Ultimately, people need Jesus. People need to be baptized, to receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:38) That's when they will start to have a more spiritual mindset, and not a worldy mindset. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit". (John 3:6) Once you have Christs spirit in you, you become a new creature, like everything about you changes. "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)
When will “Asian” privilege be addressed? Asians are statistically higher ranked economically than white people in this Country. How about “Indian” privilege? There are more Indians in scientific careers than white people per capita. Probably good to know what the target is to know when we have arrived as a Country. What is the exact ratio we need to know we have arrived?
Oh man cmon seriously. Can any human being not go back in their ancestry and not find an injustice done by their tribe or family or pervious country of origin. So how are you going to make amends to them? If we are all responsible for the sins of our fathers start with your family and let us know. Be an example for me to follow. I’m of Irish decent the English oppressed me. I’m also of English decent so now what ? Do I pay myself reparations ? We are not responsible for the sins of our fathers. We are responsible to repent of our personal sin. I’ve not sinned against a black man. This is basic stuff. I love my black brothers and sisters I treat them with respect and dignity and stand against injustices done to them. Jesus has broken down the wall of separation there is no Jew or gentile man or woman we are all one in Christ. He has done it and made us one. If the interviewer feels sho has been wronged by him or his white ancestor ....open up your wallet and give the man some cash. Every false deep guilt ridden white person who feels they need to right the wrong ..... do something like cut the man check give up your home. Stop telling other people what they should do. Actually give the man something and say you have done your part. Show me how you do it
Read up on social justice from a true liberal theologian/ philosopher and tell me how it lines up with what the Bible says about justice. What is the source of truth Gods word or mans vain philosophy.
Monopoly is a capitalist game. I think the likely solution, if the problem is systematic, is a deconstruction of the capitalist system. This is why so many are against the idea of systematic racism, because it demands a systematic revolution/deconstruction. This type of solution would likely cause untold violence and turbulence. So what is the solution? Communism? Authoritarian communism? I don't mean this comment to be controversial in any way btw, I genuinely think that economically, this is the only answer, except I don't think it really is a viable answer. What do others think?
As a black man I will say I’m tired of this conversation. Let’s stop crying about it not being fair and do something to elevate our own communities. All this crying and no solutions

Yep, totally agree.

According to liberalism. You have to cancel yourself since your English and Irish lol

The .01 percent could rescind all their “ill-gotten gains” and earn it ALL right back in

Other groups sued an industry and received monetary "reparations" it's been done already dude. So it can be done.
Can you cite specifics to see not just “if” it can be done but are there truly comparable models? Thank you.
