Absurd. No one currently living in New York City had anything to do with the evils of slavery. The vast majority of New Yorkers are descendants of immigrants who came after it was abolished. But slavery is rife in Muslim countries – right now and no one says or does a damn thing about it.

If you were to give reparations to everyone whose ancestors had been slaves, I suspect that you would have to give reparations to more than half the entire population of the globe. Slavery was not confined to one set of races.

NYC council passes slavery reparations legislation to ‘yield material solutions’ from US history
New York City will soon be the largest city in the U.S. to enact a reparations program.
By: Alexander hallL, Fox News, September 13, 2024;
ADVERTISEMENTCouncilmembers Crystal Hudson and Farah Louis sponsored a pair of bills to establish a Truth, Healing and Reconciliation Commission and a reparations task force. Both bills passed on Thursday and will be effective immediately.
“Today, the New York City Council voted to pass legislation establishing municipal efforts to acknowledge and address the legacy and impact of slavery and racial injustices in New York City,” the New York City council announced in a press release. “The package of legislation would establish a Truth, Healing and Reconciliation process on slavery within New York City (which had one of the highest rates of slave ownership in the country in the 1700s), a reparations study, informational signs at the City’s first slave market, and a taskforce to consider the creation of a ‘freedom trail’ commemorating abolitionist movement and Underground Railroad sites.”
The press release detailed how the commission would “establish facts about slavery in New York City and its ongoing legacies, protect and acknowledge affected persons and communities, and recommend changes for government and institutions to prevent the perpetuation and recurrence of injustices from the legacy of slavery.”
