Al Green: We Have to Have Reparations, Anybody Who Doesn’t Want It, I’ll Take Your Portion

‘I have a piece of legislation that calls for a Department of Reconciliation’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

GREEN: “There can be no reconciliation without reparative justice, and there can be no reparations without reparative justice, and to have reparative justice, you’ve got to have the thing that we call, what?”
UNKNOWN FEMALE: “Truth?”
GREEN: “No, the money.”
UNKNOWN FEMALE: “Money?” (Laughter)
GREEN: “You’ve got to have the money.”
UNKNOWN FEMALE: “Reparative compensation.”
GREEN: “Yes.”
UNKNOWN FEMALE: “Reparative compensation.”
GREEN: “You’ve got to have reparations. You’ve got to have money. Look, if money can solve the problems for everybody else, it can solve some of our problems. And anybody who doesn’t want the reparations, it’s OK with me. I will take your portion.” (Laughter)
