Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - To In Excelsis Gloria :

Note that Trump is  doing this mainly for his non- College degree White supporters, some of whom are KKK, but other folks will pass through the door in the process.

The long-standing issue of Reparations wasn't taken up by Brother Obama (Luo father from Kenya) not during his first term as first Black President ever and not in the Second term either. If he had as much as raised the issue during his first term, it's almost certain that he would not have served a second term, based on these sort of arguments advanced by David Horowitz long before Obama set foot in the White House. The idea of  Reparations, of so called "Black Privilege", of  painting the White House BLACK – the colour of the occupant, would have succeeded in dividing the USA as never before and would have also only succeeded in enraging Trump and his White Supremacists and most likely witnessed an increase in USA-Police-Brutality as an inevitable backlash – part of the unwritten policy as a general consensus and tacit understanding of "keeping niggers in their place", of " keeping the niggers in check"

For that reason, Obama did not take up the Reparations cause in the second term either ( Trump would have asked for a more thorough examination of Brother Obama's Birth Certificate and would have probably started a Back-to-Africa Crusade, to the lands of Obama's ancestors and for the  Black, African and  African-American Brothers and Sisters  - if Brother Obama had insisted. Needless to say, neither Pa nor Ma Clinton pushed the idea either.

Even though Black Lives Matter and the somewhat counter-revolutionary All Lives Matter is the immediate background to the next presidential elections , Reparations is still not in the air.

The question remains, if not now, when?

 In the meanwhile, Trump is  busy selling himself as the law and order President appointed by God, approved by God and the Founding Fathers, after Obama,  and especially sent by God to protect America's sacred monuments and confederate legacies.

Trump is currently expanding his base to incorporate skills over degrees…

With improved vocational training, a similar policy would develop fruits in Nigeria, although -  perish the thought  -  for some of Nigeria's Big Buk and, even if they have not ever been near the Palace,  some of the Buckingham Palace Big Grammar people the idea of skills over degrees in the employment market, is anathema

It goes without saying, that skills is the essence of Germany's industrial pre-eminence, whilst a lack of the requisite manpower requirements is why the Chinese move in with their complete workforce to execute whatever project, in record time….

Please, short of spitting fire and venom, how does one begin to approach this question  :

Why should people who never owned slaves give money to people who never were slaves?
