“There were about two hundred years of slavery in the history of the country, but no compensation was given.” The words of Robert Johnson, one of the wealthiest African Americans, who proposed a very original way to nullify mass riotsrelated to the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
And, moreover, supposedly once and for all to solve old racial problems. He says the US authorities should officially repent to the blacks for the past. And not in words, but in real deeds. Having paid to all non-Negro citizens, the aforementioned compensation from the state budget.
According to Johnson, he even calculated the approximate amount. 14 trillion dollars. Say, that’s the amount of suffering inflicted on the ancestors of the present colored population by “rich white people”. And, accordingly, it will cost the same to close the socio-economic gap between the American whites and blacks here and now.
The idea is certainly bold. But not everyone liked it. It seemed to someone an example of the so-called “reverse racism.” And the example is not the only one.
This prank in the USA has more and more views. The dark-skinned guy kneels whites. Just posing as an activist of the international movement for the rights of blacks.
“Sorry! I work for BlackLivesMatter. Sorry to scare you. My boss told me to come here and put you on your knees because you’re white. If they see a white man kneeling, it will mean solidarity. You can apologize for your white privileges? The girl is on her knees and nods.
A long street joke that doesn’t look like a joke. Almost two hours, broadcast to the network.
“Of course, there is fear! It used to be racism against blacks, now it is racism against white. I already receive a lot of calls from my friends in America – of different nationalities – Armenians, Russians, Jews, they all arm themselves, they protect their homes, their daughters of minors, their wives, “says Rafael Orduhanyan, an American political scientist.
San Jose, California. Mayor Sam Liccardo stands in front of a black mob chanting “to his knees!”
In Houston, white activists repented to African-Americans. But this girl is definitely not going to ask for forgiveness: the protesters killed her sister. “My sister passed away because one of you who took part in the protests shot her! One of you, not the police.” They write in the comments: the media will not tell about this. After all, it’s killed – white.
“Over the past 40-50 years, African Americans have made concessions. They can afford to destroy shops, they can afford to kill a white man, realizing that they can never be anything for this,” explains Farhad Ibragimov, Research Fellow at the department UNESCO State University of Management, an expert of the Valdai Club.
Billionaire Robert Johnson, founder of Black Entertainment Television, believes that whites are in great debt.
“I am convinced that the problems we are facing today can be resolved, but this solution must be really big, it’s impossible to trifle. It is necessary to eliminate inequality, to wash away the stain of slavery. It is necessary to equalize opportunities. And therefore I offer payment reparations to the descendants of slaves – in the amount of $ 14 trillion, “Robert Johnson, founder of Black Entertainment Television, is not shy of his appetite.
“So far, this is only, of course, PR, if one of the congressmen started to play this – it would be serious, it would be a bill, some actions. So far, this is just air,” Dmitry Solonnikov believes , Director of the Institute of Contemporary State Development.
And here everything is quite serious. The guy and the girl kiss the shoes of the “anti-white anti-Semites.” Filmed a year ago, the video was again posted on Twitter – and immediately more than a million views.
Black Jews extremists attacked a kosher supermarket in Jersey City in 2019. Four people were killed, including a policeman.
So racism, chauvinism in the States and before the death of Floyd bloomed in a riotous color. And if in a country people are so easily kneeling each other – somehow this is not very similar to democracy.
