Slavery Reparations Sought By Caribbean Nations For 'Lingering Legacy Of Atlantic Slave Trade

Why do muthafuckas love pointing out the exception as opposed to the rule. All you have to do is turn on Telemundo and Univsion to see that paper bag test is in full effect. Those are the most color struck niggas in the Western Hemisphere. If they didn't have a problem with race, then why are always confusing race with ethnicity? As I said earlier, these are the only muthafuckas that will say that they're "black and whatever country they or they're people are from. You don't have other West Indians talm 'bout," I'm "Jamaican and black," I'm "Trini and black," I'm Bahamaian and black," it's only those niggas from Spanish speaking countries that do that punk shit. Ask a Dominican who looks black, if they're black and see what those niggas will say. Though I must say that Trinis have a problem with claiming Tobago. How come nobody is ever from Tobago?

Why would a Trini claim Tobago? It's one nation but two different islands. You are a citizen of both but you are born in one and that is where you claim. Same with Antigua & Barbuda.

It's funny I actually know quite a few Tobagonians and all the ones I know will say they are Trini when asked.. Now with my father being from Trini I press them and they will eventually say they are from Tobago or they will say Trinbagonian.. I can concur with what was said about the Dominicans and Puerto Ricans though.. I'm like allyuh do know you are from the Caribbean though right?

Now imagine the state of Slave Descent Americans if our ancestors would have gotten the 40 acres and a mule, But Andrew jackson quickly put the brakes on that for fear of another war erupting. So reparations is not gonna happen then because it would open the door internationally for the US to have to pay to its Slave descent citizens and we know what kinda shit would ignite from that especially with Barrack in Office shit would be enough to start that 2nd civil war on racial lines which would be fucked instead of on just economic lines like it needs to be...
