WAIT!.. WHAT?! 🤬Thomas Sowell vs Trevor Noah | Slavery & Reparation | REACTION 

NOPE, not crazy at all! Based on your logic, people who inherit money have no right to it because they did NOTHING to earn it. The US was built off the forced free labor of Black people, yet they're the only ones who haven't benefitted from it. How do you think the US amassed so much wealth???

Sowell sucks.

Nah, he's a lost soul.

@@Lori-db8vl then just ignore his wisdom and walk around a victim.

@ronbecker7939 No "wisdom" to ignore, just FLAT-OUT ignorance that sooths the twisted soul of guilty ytes, and ws. And yes, the enslaved and their descendants were and are victims. No shame in admitting it. Whites did, and do some effed up ish.

@ronbecker7939 No wisdom to ignore. Thevenslavedvwere victimized, and their descendants are victims. No shame in admitting Black Americans are victims. It's fact.

@ronbecker7939 No shame in admitting BlackAmericans are victims -- it is fact.

😂😂😂 I for my part would like to watch you and your mule plough your 40 acres!

@@christiandengler6689 Sure, give it to me.

@Lori-db8vl dude start a petition, I'll be the first to sign it (needs to be for you specifically) and when you get it, I'm there!

@christiandengler6689 Girl, why do I have to start a petition? Pay attention, around the country, right now, there are commissions on this. How about you go on over and let them know you support reparations. Believe me, reparations are gonna happen!

@christiandengler6689 Girl, no need for me to START a petition. It's already happening. You're not paying attention.

Chattel slavery was nothing special at all! Nothing, other than the racial factor was something that might have stood out. Sure what followed with Jim crow was a dark period, but Sowell lived through it himself! so unless you have too, shame on you for thinking your opinion is more valid than someone who actually experienced it!

@@christiandengler6689 Interesting. First off, I didn't experience the Nazi death camps either. Is my opinion that it was a horrible and evil plan devised by equally horrible and evil people not valid? Secondly, Mr. Sowell, like me, never experienced chattel slavery. While living in the Jim Crow South and facing extreme discrimination was obviously terrible, (to say the least), it cannot compare to having every single facet of your existence, (and the existence of countless generations that followed), determined by the whims of your "Master" in a system that stripped people of their dignity and humanity, for all time! Again, shame on Mr. Sowell.

@G-MAN1958 no one says that you can't have your opinion, no matter how uninformed you are on the subject matter. When it becomes a problem is when you start 'shaming others' (ironically often more informed answers than the one held by the person trying to 'shame' the other, something called the dunning Kruger effect) for theirs. Now obviously we all agree slavery is bad, so far we all with you! 👍 Where you go off is when it comes to your view of (as you call it with a clear difference in your mind) bondage of other ethnicities. This view is either derived through a lack of knowledge (Dunning-Kruger) or simply an ideology based on victimhood. Obviously non of us have lived through slavery, but I'll give you a few examples of slavery that were not American Chattel slavery and you can tell me which you'd have preferred as a slave. 1) you are chained on a bench on a ship, you will eat, defecate, piss, sleep and predominantly row a boat from that very spot, surrounded by dozens of others with the same fate. The sun will burn down on you, basically baking you until your flesh came off your bones, all while sea water was spraying everywhere, with an average life expectancy of 2 months. 2) you will be castrated and have a 30% chance of survival. If you do survive then you will live in servitude for the rest of your life, knowing you can never have any children and you are the last of your line. 3) you will be beheaded for the gods. 4) you will live your life under a ruler. You will work the fields, you will only be allowed to have a family or children if your ruler agrees, you will not be allowed to move to another place. Your children and their children will live in 'bondage' for their lives, as have your fathers and their fathers before them. Which one, if you were a slave, would you have chosen and which one do you think was the cruelest?

@@christiandengler6689 Yes, the subjugation of various groups because of military conquest, plunder, religious intolerance, social status, etc. was all reprehensible. But the American system of chattel slavery (and it's aftermath), whereby a specific race and their descendants were held in state sanctioned bondage in order to support and perpetuate an economic system which would not have been possible but for their perpetual bondage for nearly three hundred years, deserves both specific condemnation and redress. If you (and Mr. Sowell) don't understand that, there isn't much else I can say.

@G-MAN1958 so you condemn Europe between around 800 and 1850s (and Russia till 1918) too? Because apart from the racial factor, that was the daily life of 80% of Europeans! Cry me a river!

Maybe it gives some perspective as to how black America is viewed in the world and why. And for a change you can't just blame it on racism but actually have to think about why this is! It's a great learning opportunity for you!

He is a paid liar.

Being pro reparations is essentially what Trevor is tho. Fair enough if that has been taken out of context but the basic standpoint surely isn't different, is it?

@@chazw3x he has literally said he agrees with reparations 🙄

😂😂😂 you saying Dr Sowell is a poor study? Interesting! You seem full of it!
