S.3 Ep.13 The Case For Reparations

The Four Cornered Room

08/16/21 • 91 min

On today's episode, Moxy gives the gang the run down on how the continuation of racist policy undoes the little progress made for the enslaved populations shortly after the Civil War of America and how without addressing the shortcomings that were manifested by the Government of that era and societal opinion, the oppressive nature simply changed to more cryptic ideology and their silent agreements that lead to curation of Sundown Towns. If a slave were to become a freed man, the tyranny they faced was that of bureaucratic exclusion, and negligence from a system and a people that purely relied on their exploitable existence up to this point.
