NFL Vet Herschel Walker Says Blacks Shouldn’t Get Slavery Reparations

Former NFL Pro Herschel Walker believes that African Americans should not receive slavery reparations for a number of reasons.

During a House Judiciary Committee subcommittee hearing on Wednesday, the avid Donald Trump supporter said that people use Black power to “create white guilt.” He argued that reparations would require Blacks to use genetic companies to calculate their pay based on their ancestry percentage.

“Reparations, where does the money come from? Does it come from all the other races except the black taxpayers? Who is black? What percentage of black must you be to receive reparations? Do you go to 23andMe or a DNA test to determine the percentage of blackness? Some American ancestors just came to this country 80 years ago, their ancestors wasn’t even here during slavery. Some black immigrants weren’t here during slavery, nor their ancestors. Some states didn’t even have slavery.”

The 58-year-old Heisman Trophy winner also argued that African Americans were involved in the slave trade before it was abolished in the United States in 1865.

“Who is the guilty party? Should we start at the beginning where African Americans sold your African American ancestors into slavery? And to a slave trader who eventually sold African American ancestors to slave owners?”

Walker began his semi-professional career with the USFL New Jersey Generals, who Trump owned. He went on to play in the NFL for the Vikings, Eagles, and Giants.

In his conclusion, Herschel Walker claimed that reparations were “outside the teaching of Jesus Christ.”
