NO slaves who were set free in 1865 when the Civil War ended are still alive today. The USA owes their relatives ZERO, NADA, Squat! I am a descendant of Cherokee Indians on both my mother and father’s sides of the family and I do not feel that I am owed a penny by the U.S. Government or anyone else.
How about we all live in the present, make our own bed, shape our own destiny, take responsibility for our actions and quit feeling guilty for the past actions of our ancestors? BTW: Do the descendants of the slaves who sold their own people to the slave traders and now live in the USA want to give some money to the descendants of the people that they sold? Nope, I didn’t think so.
