Alan Lester debunks all the arguments used by those trying to stop a discussion about compensating the descendants of slaves
Slavery was, and STILL IS appalling
but what you're talking about is history
You are arguing that reparations are due from people who didn't gain anything from it to people who didn't suffer from it.
(yes, I know lots of aristocracy gained from it - so maybe concentrate on them, be nice if eg Charles paid Inheritance Tax)
(racism is a different argument)
we need to move on and address the issues in the present and future.
there are lots of double standards out there, try sorting those
