They need hard currency - anyway they can get it. If the socialists there need to pimp out their local black people for cash, they will do it.

Africans were not the 1st, not the last, nor were they the only ones to be slaves. Every race, color, and practically every nationality has been or owned slaves.

Even if there ever were "reparations" I seriously doubt the descendants of any slaves would see a dime as the government would see fit to "redistribute" any and all reparations.

I'm sure Chavez's daughter will get richer.

The US gave reparations during the LBJ movement and we’ve been paying for it since.

The only other thing I can think of is to give them Venezuela.

Yes, we need to reimburse the families and descendants of those who fought in the civil war on the side of the north.

I have an idea. Lets give the descendants of Venezuelan slaves a whole country swimming in petroleum. They can do whatever they want with it.

The caribes need to reimburse europeans who's family fell victim to cannibals, such as the explorer Veranzo:

I’m not sure that Spain and Portugal have the stomach or the resources to pay Latin American blacks anything. And why should the USA do it?

If the hot mess that is collapsing, communist Venezuela is going to pontificate about slavery in the New World, they should read the history of the Spanish in the New World-the 1st people they enslaved were not Black but the Native Americans/Indians from the Caribbean Islands all the way to what is now the SW US-but Indians don’t make good slaves-they were prone to kill their captors or die trying to-not profitable, so the Spaniards brought Black slaves from Africa-apparently they were less likely to revolt as often...

Since my Spanish ancestors enslaved my Native American ancestors, along with those of just about every other person of Hispanic descent in the Americas-we should be 1st in line for any “reparations”-so come on Spain and Portugal-cough ‘em up!!!

Let me see the logic here:

Some of my ancestors were enslaved by some of your ancestors.

Some of my ancestors enslaved some of your ancestors.

Most of the slaves taken by some less succesfull societies, did not reproduce.

Most of the slaves take by some of today’s more successful societies, reproduced.

Since some white people who had some black slaves, lived in societies that eliminated slavery and became wealthy, the people in those societies today, should pay the black people in the societies that did not become wealthy.

Total nonsense.

If you watch Ancient Aliens, you know that aliens changed the DNA of Homo Erectus (erection man) in order to make all of them more useful so they could work in the gold mines. So as soon as the aliens return, we need to present them with our bill for reparations. That’ll clear it all up.
