If you can identify WHO was harmed and what the monetary VALUE of that harm done is today, then ya, of course, JUSTICE for the harmed parties is usually done by way of compensation for the value of the harm done. Just throwing free money at all persons of certain approved skin colors today is not justice, it's not reparations, it's not even atonement for the parties that did the harm, it's actually a form of RACISM, in my humble and colorless opinion.It is nice that you, theotherwaldo, wiscoaster are saying that we should ignore race. But, the damage was done in the name of race and we can't just turn around now and say, 'oh, right, we should ignore race, after all'. The harm has already been inflicted. There is a group that has suffered economic impacts from racist policies, and much like to the Japanese Americans, we owe a debt.
