Here is one idea that can be used to help in getting monies for Black people specifically.
Our own lotto. One idea, fight to have a federal lotto. Where its open to all states and territories and the proceeds to specifically to a black megafund. That fund can only be used for a specific purpose. We can determine that...maybe HBCU funding, whatever.
Or we have our own independent one that we can legally have like the Indians. With today's technology it can be done with multiple states. Set up agreements and again, the proceeds go specific to something we want. Run by us.
I'm NOT saying this is reparations or a solution to it, not all. I know some of y'all will jump to that conclusion immediately. Just something black people can have for us, by us. It can be included in the reparations fight (after cash settlements) or now or whenever but have the right to have a lotto. A lot of non black people will buy it if the pot is right. People don't trip on where money is going to if they can win some.
