The descendants of enslavement in America go uncompensated to this very day!
Reparations over Everything!
Reparations over Everything!
Let it be no mistake! The celebration of Juneteenth is important because the transatlantic slave kidnapping was the biggest deportation and enslavement of a people in history and a determining factor in the world economy starting from the16th-to-the-20th century. Millions of Africans were torn from their homes, deported to North America and sold into slavery. Their enslaved forced labor is the economic foundation that the America's stands on today. THIS IS WHAT HISTORY TELLS US! WHAT HISTORY DOSEN'T TELL US: We were a people already in the continent of North America when the colonizers came. We are aboriginals and indigenous to the earth from sea to shining sea.
atHow eThe results of Colonialism compounded by the transatlantic slave trade and other actions that have occurred against African descendants over the past 400 plus years has been brutal and devastating.
We pose a few of the numerous questions that need to be considered:
Who are we?
Where is home?
Where is our country?
What is our language?
What are the logical solution(s) to the many problems that we face today?
The answers are simple.
We are the survivors of the worst atrocities ever inflicted against a people in history.
We are aboriginal/indigenous people of the planet earth.
Our home is the planet earth.
Our language is all languages.
Our logical solution is claiming our true identity and collectively manifesting reparations over everything!

Just a few months before the Butler auction, the now infamous slave ship the Wanderer had landed at Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia with more than 400 illegal slaves brought directly from the Congo. This was one of the last documented slave ships to arrive in North American and it created a roiling controversy. The transport of slaves from Africa had long been outlawed, but owners of the Wanderer, with the help of the pro-slavery “fire-eater” Charles Lamar, disguised their ship as a luxury cruise liner and brought back a hull-full of “human chattel,” thumbing his nose at federal law. Records indicate that nearly 80 slaves perished on the voyage. Read the rest of this article here.
Why Reparations?
The struggle for human rights under civil legislation continues
African descendants were introduced to the worst atrocities experienced by any people in the history of the world
CIVIL LEGISLATION WILL NOT DO!
COMPENSATION IS DUE AND WE DEMAND IT NOW!
