Had they left Tulsa, Oklahoma, alone and several other economically advanced Black towns in those days, AAs would have got their reparations a long time ago. Black-owned banks and business districts achieved iconic local success during segregation.

I've said it here before: We ain't gonna get reparation unless we get our shit together!
To get the kind of reparation AAs are duly owed, we must command a certain level of credibility and respect that make the powers-that-be take us seriously. And for that to happen we must get our economic shit together, our cultural shit together, our religious shit together, and even our political attitudes must be aligned with our interests. Until then reparations for AAs will be just street chants the power elites can ignore.
I have said this before too: The Jewish community didn't get reparations from Germany because the Germans loved then, they got it because they had economic power(a powerful banking presence), powerful media influence, and Israel growing as a successful & powerful nation. Like them or not, you had to take Jewish demands seriously cuz they could hurt your arse. lol
Again, if the Black Diaspora & the African continent got our shit together, the British, French and American elites will come begging us to accept reparations. It's always about power, not morality or ethics or any of that shit.
LOL.. that's off my broad chest!
