this was a common suggestion among early white leaders, including Thomas Jefferson. That white and black could never live together, so when slavery ended, blacks would have to emigrate and colonize somewhere else. Without the reparations, of course.

Because this nation has been steeped in racism from the earliest sighting by Europeans.

Reading about it has always horrified me; but then, I ask, are we less racist? Yes; a little. Not so much for the time and generations we've had to evolve, though. Not enough. Do we live well together? Not well enough.

Reparations and country...it's an interesting concept, anyway.
