[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What percentage of the US black population can trace back to US slavery era? In other words, if a black family first came to the US in 1950, that family wouldn’t have suffered based on past US slavery culture in the South. Correct? Would it be fair to say that boy black families that dated back to this country pre WW2? Cause we are talking reparations for slavery; or do we want to expand to Jim Crow? Pre Civil Rights, so 1964? I am asking to get a sense of scope. [/quote] Current leading thought on eligibility: Having at least one ancestor who was enslaved in the United States, and having identified oneself as African-American on a legal document for 10 years before the approval of any reparations. Using these guidelines roughly 30 million Americans would be eligible. [/quote]
