African Americans suffer vestiges of slavery, stigmatization as descendants of the enslaved; legally supported inferior education; disrespect in the denial of 40 acres, + mule Reparations – a BIGGIE; racism, generational poverty designed for descent into vice and crime. African Americans who are not able to fend for themselves are held up in ridicule on the evening news for all to consume as if they are representative of all African Americans. 1. Police need to admit they have foul cops who tarnish police image, sow distrust of police among African Americans, and need to be rooted out. Police need to inform public when this is done. 2. Respect African Americans by paying us our Reparations. Having not done so contributes to disrespect by others. 3. Need Hate Crime Law for attacks on us
