Post: What if I told you the U. S. Already paid reparations to slave owners in eighteen sixty two. During the Civil War, President Lincoln signed the Compensated Emancipation Act. It ended slavery in Washington, DC. But here's the twist, The government didn't pay the freed people. It paid the enslaves three hundred dollars per person for their loss of property. There are actual government receipts still on file. So let's get this straight. They bought black freedom, but gave the money to the ones who owned them. Formerly enslaved people got nothing, No land, no money, no restitution. And more than a one hundred and sixty years later, we're still debating if black Americans deserve reparations. But they already wrote the checks just to the wrong people. This isn't a conspiracy. It's history. And the receipts don't lie. Follow for more history. They don't want us to know. Comment and share so others will know this important information. Their story is our history. Share, Believe, inspire blacks, be.
