Black leaders rebuke Sen. Tommy Tuberville for his stance on reparations and crime
As far as Jeremy Ellis is concerned, Republican Tommy Tuberville should know or learn more about the long history and struggles of the Black Alabama residents he represents in the U.S. Senate.
Tuberville told people Saturday at an election rally in Nevada that Democrats support reparations for the descendants of enslaved people because “they think the people that do the crime are owed that.”
His remarks — seen by many as racist and stereotyping Black Americans as people who commit crimes — cut deeply for some, especially in and around Africatown, a community in Mobile, Ala., founded by descendants of Africans who were illegally smuggled into the U.S. in 1860 aboard a schooner called the Clotilda.
The 2019 discovery of the vessel in the muddy waters near Mobile offers the best argument for reparations of some type to the descendants of the enslaved people who survived the long and arduous Atlantic crossing.
