See What Americans Have to Say About African American Reparations
"I recently finished reading African American Reparations and was blown away by the level of research, analysis, and expertise that went into crafting this book. As someone who has been studying social justice issues for years, I was already familiar with the case for African American reparations, but this book took my understanding to a whole new level. Mr. Bryant doesn't just argue for reparations in principle but provides a detailed roadmap for how it could be implemented in practice. But what really sets this book apart is its focus on economic justice. It shows why reparations must go beyond simple cash payments and include investments in education, healthcare, and housing. It highlights the need for some much-needed structural reforms. Overall, I found this book to be incredibly insightful and thought-provoking!"
"African American Reparations has completely shifted my understanding of the potential for reparations. The author makes a compelling case for why reparations are necessary, given the centuries of discrimination, disenfranchisement, and violence that African Americans have endured. But what I found most impressive was the level of detail and specificity in his plan for how reparations could actually be enacted in a way that is fair, equitable, and feasible. Kudos to Bryant W. Holt!"
"African American Reparations delves into the history of reparations movements, as well as the legal and political hurdles that must be overcome in order to make reparations a reality. But it's not just a theoretical exercise - it provides concrete examples of how reparations have been implemented in other countries and contexts, as well as practical suggestions for how the US government could finance and distribute reparations to those who are owed them. Overall, I found this book to be a game-changer in terms of how I think about reparations. It's a must-read for anyone who is interested in social justice, constitutional law, or political activism."
