U.S. owes black people reparations for a history of ‘racial terrorism,’ says U.N. panel

Quote:You're arguing about two totally separate issues. The Japanese people sent to internment camps were U.S. citizens at the time (a time of war). During the slavery years, blacks were not considered citizens.

Is that the best argument you have.... they were citizens, and Blacks weren't until 1868? Only Sixty Two percent of the Japanese were US citizens (Meyer, 1946). You're simply using semantics to weasel your way out the argument. But look we can start at 1868....it still took over 100 years before blacks had accorded full protection under the law and discrimination was "outlawed".
