[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Strikes me as a lot of demands for "Black Privilege." Ironic since the premise underlying all this is opposition to perceived White Privilege.

- Every single black kid -  regardless of aptitude or academic history - gets guaranteed admission to a 4-year public university, and completely paid for by taxpayers? Displaces white kids, even if they're more academically qualified or come from poorer backgrounds? Too bad, I guess.
 - and even the ILLEGAL immigrants (as long as they're black) get the same deal? Taking space away from white citizens? Who cares.
- and the black students who currently have student loans get them forgiven (paid off by taxpayers) while the white students are stuck?
- and really, decriminalize drug use and prostitution for blacks? That's a goal? 
- and have a minimum live-able wage for blacks? So there will be two pay scales: higher if you're black and lower if you're white? Can you imagine the response if this were proposed on reverse?

I could go on and on, but these "demands" are insane. Besides, how did BLM - supposedly a movement against police brutality of blacks - expand to a list of demands that essentially create a privileged black class at the expense of whites?

Why can't BLM expand their movement? What will they need to do to make you feel good enough for you to care about anything they are saying?

Thats what I thought.

Also you keep bring up whites. This isn't a 1 for 1 here. We are talking about reparations for AAs. The U.S sanctioned atrocities specifically against AAs as an entire group. The U.S allowed or sanctioned the theft of black wealth. Those wrongs have had lasting impact on generations of AAs. Doesn't matter that some AAs are wealthy now. Or even President. Its a moral debt owed to AAs by the U.S government that has not been paid.
