Acknowledge what "WE" did ? Who exactly is WE? I didn't have any slaves, and no one in this lifetime was a slave.
Pay reparations to who? Absolutely no one alive today, born and raised in the US was ever a slave.

And with who's money? Tax money (my money)? I'll be god damned in I'm paying a cent for something I didn't do to people who weren't affected.

It's history. It was history worldwide and commonly accepted. The US acted before most of the globe did to do the right thing. Get over it

If you feel that way, that's great. Make sure you don't feel proud of the past accomplishments of your country or family if you weren't around to help. Tongue

"United States" - ironic name.

There's a difference between pride and perpetual victimhood.

If my great great grandfather was killed by your great great grandfather, should you be liable in my civil suit?
Where does it end?

I'll worry about black slavery, as soon as they have the same concerns over Irish and Chinese slavery.
