Should the current day Duwamish pay reparations to the descendants of the people Chief Seattle enslaved?

Meh. Ended 100+ years ago. When will this stop being an excuse for one's failures? 200 years? 300 years? Probably never, Losers will blame anything but themselves for their lack of success. Slavery didn't seem to hold back many Black Americans. seattle cooked. Fantasyland policies don't work. Soft on crime is a disaster, for law-abiding citizens.

I think a start would be white America paying reparations for their centuries of slavery. Then you could focus on your present day racism rather than your diversions.

The ownership of slaves was an instituted created in the US by whites over blacks. A few exceptions to that practice doesn't change that - except to present day racists looking to reduce the obscenity of the practice overwhelmingly committed by white culture.

Threads like this clearly demonstrate the ugly bigoted side of US culture, which is overwhelmingly white racism. As James Baldwin said, "race is America's shadow".

Nah, that floyd guy was a total Loser. Criminal! High on drugs! Counterfeiter! Obese! Held a gun to a pregnant woman's belly. That Loser never should've been there that day, he should've been deep inside a prison somewhere.
