I've thought just a teeny bit about reparations and realized that all but one or two ancestors going back five generations did not even arrive on this continent until after the civil war. So the most I owe is a 1/8th share. But my kids, by way of their mother, are 1/16th Native American; so I'll just give my dues to my three children and call it all square. Does that sound fair? I wouldn't want to be unfair based on the possibility that my two northern Ohio ancestors may have contributed to the slavery problem by supplying the Union Army with flour during the Civil War. If it turns out I still owe some reparations, would it be all right if I waited until I found gainful employment or should I sell my 19-year old automobile? Will somebody please have the person in charge of reparations get in touch with me soon so I know where I stand. Thank You. Chas
