    1. @The Black Shadow there is no systematic racism in the US except against white people. You just want free stuff. You have not expierenced any real racism.

    2. Tim R WHITE PEOPLE got free labor for over 200 years..You sound stupid and uneducated learn some REAL history Racist POS!

  1. And without centuries of slave labor, the US would have never, or taken much longer, to move from a lowly populated, poor, colonized backwater of the UK to an independent global super power. The country/economy was built on the backs of slave labor, despite what government approved history texts told you in school.

    1. Progressive Humanist : I moved here in 2006, from England. Mine is the first country in history to make slavery illegal. There are still things to be, “proud,” of in our western history. But, we’ve fallen a long way from, “I regret that I have but one life to give for my country,” to, “go back to where you came from.” I genuinely WISH there were more blacks and other races in America, in overwhelming numbers, than white people. Racism would be such a pointless proposition, then . . . I suspect that this resurgence of racism, globally, has something to do with white, “minorities,” sensing that this is what the future holds? At least, I hope and pray that this is the last gasp? The alternative is unthinkable

  2. A.D.O.S BLACK PEOPLE were here since 1619 before this country was called AmeriKkka 1776 and fought in every war…Pay what you owe AmeriKkka!

    1. Get it from the people that made that history. Tell us how you`re suffering? As for the rest of it, you got it all back through 5 finger discount.

    2. Dennis Anderson Let me guess you’re a RACIST,Did you care when AmeriKkka paid Reparations to the native Indian, Japanese, and Jews?!?

    3. J O You’re benefiting from the 200 years of free slave labor as well.. So yes you owe reparations also.. Just like my tax dollars are going to the Jewish people every year..But I had nothing to do with the Holocaust in Europe!

  3. America is becoming a white capitalist state as white people payed more than colored citizens and limit job occupation to the white and use immigration laws as an excuse for even against legal immigrants

    1. Yes, they have been paid to Jewish people and Japanese people. Not Black people. You are the one who needs to “stop” with your white supremacy, white privilege, white fragility, God complex, inbreeding and or coonery🖕🏽

  4. Google 1924 Democrat National Convention in New York city. It was called the Klanbake. Every democrat politician was wearing Klan robes. The KKK was the democrat party, that’s been replaced by ANTIFA, another anti American terrorist organization.
    The democrat party is the party of prejudice. Prejudice against Jews or anti semitism is seen everyday from the democrat party.

  5. Not even 8 minutes for this important and complex history with how it relates to current racial divides? You can do better MSNBC.

  6. I think the wealth gap is poor and wealthy American. not so much black and white. I know plenty of white people who feel the same way as unhappy people of any color.

    1. dmg2FUN – that’s because amerikkka wants to forget who made amerikkka truly great and powerful – it’s enslaved population. Educate yourself FFS.

    2. WE’LL STOP ONCE WE GET PAID THE MONEY THAT YOU OWE US!!!!!!!!!!!!! #ADOS!!!!!!!!!!!! REPARATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. Yep and who can you blame for this? Nathan Bedford Forrest ? Or the current democrats. Why? Guess who the members and founders are of the KKK ??? Guess who killed president Lincoln ?? (tip: it’s someone like Jonnie Depp) Guess who are dividing America nowadays??? (tip: someone like msnbc and cnn)

  8. @5:52 did you catch that about Lincoln. He was never for the freedom of black people. We are the only people in this country who are still in the land of their captivity. Black people were abducted, captured and forced to this land. After all the suffering, abuse, torture, free labor and the killing of black people, the hateful people think they can ship us off. This nation owe black people and pay back is going to be a _____. Revenge belongs to YAH!
