Buffalo Quakers and Reparations

The moral imperative to begin to correct some of the sins of slavery, by means of reparations, has been accepted by Buffalo Quakers. What does reparations mean? A fundamental understanding of this is in the protest songs of African Americans calling y’all to “take back what they stole from us!”  What has been stolen? Hundreds of years of life and labor and wealth.
