I don't think the other countries or people should pay the compensation money to the descendents of slavery because I think they are not slaves now,they are equal to everyone else.

I think that European countries and others whose families benefited from slavery shouldn't pay compensation money to the descendant of slavery because money cannot replace/pay human life

I don't think that countries/ people should be paying back descendants of slaves.

Although slave trading was an extremely terrible event, most people have changed. This happened years and years ago. The descendants of slave masters or those who owned slaves don't treat anyone like that anymore. If every slave master descendant paid back every slave descendant, that would cause chaos and the descendants of the slave masters/owners would be bankrupt and wouldn't even be able to pay all the money back.

As terrible as the slave trade was, I don't believe that the families who benefited from the trade should have to pay compensation The slave trade was hundreds of years ago, the families who benefited can't change what happened. Demanding that these families should pay $777 trillion would cause chaos, no one would have enough money and it would effect the economy in many ways.  Although these people are descendants of slave traders, it is unlikely they would have wanted to continue.

I think the descendants of enslaved Africans should be paid compensation because the African slaves had been treated badly by the Europeans. First the slaves living conditions were poor, for example some of the slaves lives in a plantation( a large farm). The house only built out of bricks or wood with no running water or power source and no furniture, also it was only 5x5 metres.

Secondly, they were forced to separate from their families. For example, there was a mother lead 7 children to the auction block. Some of her children were sold to be a slave trader and the mother was bought by a man in her town. But the trader doesn't tell to the mother where her children were gone. Then all of the children were died! So this kind of physical damage were irrevocable!!!!

The technology can’t track  blood  from 200 years ago so there is no point that can proof that their grand-grand-grand father have owned a slave or not . It was not illegal to own a slave at that period of time . Moreover if someone’s grand-grand- grand father owned the slave, we shouldn’t pay them back because we are not the one who committed  the crime and also just because current individuals are benefitting from the previous harms doesn’t mean that they are responsible for them they are just feeling its aftermath.

I support the view that Europeans should not pay the money back to the Africans. First of all, the slaves that were involved in the slaves trade already passed away. It is also hard to find their descendants after the slaves trade ended 200 years ago.Secondly, it is impossible to know how much exact money we should pay back to each slave. There were so many slaves at that period of time. Thirdly, due to greed, it will make the situation more worse because there might be some African that wants to share the money even though their ancestors were not involved in the trade.

In my perspective, I strongly do not reckon that the Europeans should pay the arrear to the descendants of slavery. Because firstly, it wasn't their fault, it happened long long ago, approximately 200 years ago, it's very tough to determine whose ancestor actually owned or participate in any kind of slavery related topics. Secondly, the amount of the money that the African World Reparations and Reparation Truth commission solicited is absolutely preposterous. It's a bit beyond the bounds of possibility to manage who are the families and how much do they actually have to pay.

In my opinion, I think European should not pay money to descendants of slavery because firstly it was long times ago and those who should be compensated are long dead. Besides, the descendants of slavery are in the different places and spread out which is not easy to find them, therefore there's no use to pay compensation and wasting time. Secondly, even they find the descendants of slavery and pay for them, the other Africans also want it and they will pretend that they are the descendants and try to get the compensation and if they don't give the money to them, perhaps they're going to protest about it which can make the problem worse.  Furthermore, it's very complicated to value out how much money they can get which depends on different situations.
In addition, today there're still a small numbers of children have been sold as slaves and that's what the Africans do to themselves. Moreover, the Europeans have already apologized to them then it's over. Look forward to the future is the most important thing to do instead of keep looking back. The Past is past, none can change it.

I think European countries still have to pay compensation money because the most of the problems in Africa is due to the colonisation and slavery of Europe. For example, as the Europe divided Africa not considering their religion and tribes, there are more than two groups are in one country and they are still having war.
Even though it has happened long long time ago, it does not mean that Europeans can be free from the obligation. They should feel sorry and do their best to help Africa. Paying compensation may not be the best solution but if Africa says it is the most needed, Europe should think about it. As the effects of Europe's behavior is still going on, they should do something more helpful to Africa not just saying sorry.

I don't think European should pay money to descendants of slavery. Because it is happened a long time ago. Organisations don't have a record of who should the money pay to . It s ridiculous  to force individuals to pay for the unjust actions of their ancestors, if people forces them to pay the money to the slavery, the two countries will break up their relationships.

I don't think European countries and other whose families benefitted from slavery pay compensation money to descendants of Slavery. This is because these things were gone and become a history, if you still ask them to pay for this, this will break the relation ship of two countries. Also European countries already said sorry to what they had done to slaved so why they can't forgive them?

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think so be because it was before if you ask other country to pay it might break the relationships between two countries

I strongly believe that the west should not be paid because it happened over 200 hundred which means it is very old. So, it would be great-gear-great-great grandfather which is already died. I don't think that family should have advantages to have money. I think apology is enough. Also this generation don't know the exact feeling about slavery. Only great-great-great grandfather would know.
Moreover, Africa want huge amount of money which is not reliable.

I believe that the people who are descended from slaves should not be paid because it happened over 200 hundred years ago. If someone's great-great-great-great-great-grandfather owned a slave, why should his now living relative who does not own a slave pay for what his grandfather did?
Furthermore, it is impossible to tell exactly who's deceased relatives are responsible for trading and owning slaves. If you know the name of a slave owner, that owner could be from several different families that share the same sir name. Most of these families may not even know that a relative owned slaves, which would also mean that they probably wouldn't have records of a relative who may have owned slaves.
While owning a slave now is illegal, 150 years ago, when people owned slaves, it was legal. The conditions in which the slaves were living in and working in were common, and therefor were not illegal. Of course, if people were to own slaves today and have them work in the conditions as they did when slaves were common, it would be illegal, and the family would need to be compensated.

I don't think European should pay money to descendants of slavery. Because it happened a long time ago. Europeans and Africans shouldn't argue about it anymore. Because Europeans apologized about what they did in the past, and most of Europeans and Africans can be friendly with each other today.

NO. I do not think that European countries should pay the families with traces of slaves in their heritage. This being because it is impossible to determine who should pay and who they should give the money to. It is completely unfair to place the actions of a person's long ago descendant on a person that had no action, choices or even anything to do with the slave trade.
In addition, without knowing each of the individual suffering, it is impossible to determine how much each family should be paid. Not only this, but the money demanded is absurd. The figures that people (people that had nothing to do with the slave trade) are expected to pay are unreasonable considering the situations.
