I can see it now:
"We're so sorry for all the evils that we've done in the past and subsequently thereafter. that, as a token of our remorse, regret, and shame we shall give you such and such amount as reparation!"
Even though that 10's of thousands have already paid that in lives lost in the Civil War to free Black slaves.
Even though that any other nation state would have done the very same thing had they been so blessed with natural resources, knowledge, and knowhow.
Even though that there were nation and nation states who have done far worse such as the Mongols, the Japanese in Korea and in WWII that, as a principle strategy in taking major cities to torture, r*pe, massacre every living soul who does not surrender so as to spread fear in neighboring states.
That what Europeans were hardly the first and the only ones to enslave other people (See African slave trade by the Arab Muslims and Africans themselves).
The fact that European Whites arguably conquered more lands than than anyone else does not mean that they are the most racist. It simply means that they happened to be the most effective due to being the first to industrialize.
And any other people would have fallen into becoming racist and imperialistic had they met with the long string of successes as the European Whites.
Did not the Chinese looked down on Europeans when Marco Polo visited as they are far more sophisticated in philosophies, civility, and the academics? Did not the Japanese viewed themselves as superior to all others, including White Americans because they are of the Yamato race?
And as of now, most American professional Football and Basket Ball players are Blacks. Not only that, Olympic races are dominated by Black Africans. Serena and Venus Williams, for a time or to this day, leads Women's Tennis; professional Boxing also as Black Africans far outnumbered Whites as the latter clearly being outfought. Is it truly impossible for them to not be racist with such list of successes?
I were Black it would be easy for me to conclude that we're comparatively the strongest, fastest; most agile and therefore most talented of all races were it not for the present reality that most of my people live in near poverty with 50% high school dropout rates and have a disproportionate representation in prisons despite the majority being White. Imagine now if that was not the present reality, how would I see myself and my people now?
