I'm all for it.
In fact, I'm willing to take on enough debt to grant $500,000 to each black of slave descent.
As long as repatriation is part of the bargain.
Time to end the black diaspora, Africans were brought here against their will and it is far past time to go home.
This would solve a number of issues including the "wealth gap" and the fact that many black leaders and spokesmen, by their own words, cannot live with whites in this country, as the nation and it's founding people and all its institutions are steeped in white supremacy that cannot be helped or "cured" or changed, short of burning everything down and starting differently from a Marxist/Globalist position.
$500,000 to be paid at any international point of entry/departure, in US FRNs, gold, foreign currency or crypto, upon surrender of all US documents and proof of departure.
This would not be mandatory, any slave descendant is willing to stay, without reparations, but it (the reparations program) would be time limited to say, one year.
Duke University professor says US needs to enact $14 TRILLION reparations program which would hand $350,000 to every black American descendant of slaves

An economics professor at Duke University has called for the United States to issue reparations to every black American descendant of slaves at a cost of $14 trillion.
William Darity, who co-authored the book 'From Here to Equality: Reparations for Black Americans in the Twenty-First Century,' shared his plan on Tuesday's episode of Dr. Phil.
Darity suggested the US government issue the funds in much the same way it sent out checks to millions of Americans during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
'It would be paid by the federal government in the same way in which the federal government has met the expenses that were paid out for the purposes of trying to deal with the great recession and also, most recently, with the economic downturn associated with the great pandemic,' he said.
Darity said if the $14 trillion was distributed evenly across 40 million people whose ancestors were in the chattel slavery system it would equal about $350K per person.
He said the amount 'should be dictated by the disparity in wealth between Black and White Americans, which at the current moment amounts to in excess of $840,000 per household.'
Darity said the 'objective' of the program would be to 'eliminate the racial wealth gap in the United states.'
The U.S. government is currently more than $31 trillion in debt.
Political writer Joshua Ferguson, who was also featured on Tuesday's panel with Dr. Phil, said the country could not afford the massive reparation bill.
'First of all, the US government doesn't have money. All of their money comes from taxes. To say you're not going to take it from people today, you're right. You're going to take it from future generations,' he said.
Renowned author and civil rights activist Bob Woodson also lambasted Darity's lofty plan, saying: 'I cannot think of any group of people who have been made wealthy by just transferring money to them.'
There are just over 40million black Americans in the US, so Darity's figure assumes each of them is a descendant of American slavery.
However, according to a Pew Research Center study from April 2022, just 57 percent of black Americans believe they are descendants of American slavery.
Dr. Phil challenged Darity's plan on psychological grounds saying: 'I can tell you from a psychological perspective that if you take $350,000 or $840,000, and you write a check to any group of people - black, white, poor, homeless, whatever - you give any group of people that much money and say, ''there you go, best of luck,'' you come back in six months, they're going to be broke.'
'Whatever reparations are done, that would be an absolute disaster, as opposed to guidance and help in creating generational wealth, as opposed to income.'
