The question that always comes to my mind when talking about this is, if reparations are in order, how do we get past it? And don't say, "when minorities achieve equality," because that is immeasurable. Is it when a certain percentage are going to college or achieve a pre-determined economic status? Do we figure out who are the direct decendants of slaves and pay them all a fixed figure and call it paid in full? Seems to me that part of the frustration of those who oppose reparations do so because they see it as an unending financial drain. Or maybe you don't see it as ever ending. This is one I struggle with, so I'm looking forward to your responses...
