A California law exposing companies that once insured lives of slaves to benefit white masters is fanning the controversy over whether blacks should receive reparations.
According to Fox News:

The state law taking effect in January requires California insurance companies to make public whether their corporate ancestors sold slave insurance payable to slave owners in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Its supporters see it as another stepping stone to obtaining reparations to present-day African-Americans whose forebears were slaves.

I am German. The Roman empire invaded lands held by my ancestors. I wonder if I can get Italy to pay me a few million to ease my suffering. Of course, I'd have to give that money to the Jewish community because, despite both my grandfathers fighting in WWII (one at Normandy and one in the South Pacific) , I must be responsible for the holicost to, because I am German.
