If Kamala wants reparations she needs to go after Britain


Which most likely were involved in bringing her paternal forefathers from African to Jamaica. Toss in some coin from the Dutch and don't forget those ship builders from Rhode Island, the Brown Family.

So African doesn't always work, nor does black. People of Color seems to encompass many aspects including Latino, Native Americans and Middle Easterners. I know many Sicilians that make Negros look pale, so that doesn't always work. Toss in that slaves brought to the US were not solely from Africa and you lose all semblance of orderly label definition.
