So if Boston is fined for contributing more to slavery than others, can the states not in the Union in the 1860s and all the Northern states which did not have slavery in the 1800s be exempt for reparations?
Example: The Territory of Michigan had “underground railroad” hiding centers in Ypsilanti and elsewhere commemorated with historical plaques. Did they pay their dues?

There are plenty of cemeteries in northern Illinois filled with graves marked with 17 to 20-year old boys who died in the Civil War. And I am sure that is true all across the country, at least east of the Mississippi.
The racism business will never go out of business as long as there are buyers for the rhetoric.

I think every state back then had slavery to a degree.
