While I agree with most of what Kendall stated, I do not think the V.I.G. should give monies to any organization, including the one that is leading the reparation effort. If the issue is reparation from Denmark, then the Danish Government should sponsor the trip to Denmark. Public funds should not be used to support special interests groups. Kendall, what is it you want from the Danes? Don’t you think asking them for anything is subservient? You’re asking the descendants of those who enslaved Africans to make you whole, which in essences empowers them. You see them as superiors who have the power to erase your pain caused by others. Why not ask the Creator to heal your wounds?

This administration has been a total diapointment.

It sads that something as important as this would be overlooked, yet $50,000 from this same Act 6969 was given to the Horseracing Fund to be given out at bets in increment of $5,000. So gambling has become an emergency humanitarian need.

For some strange reason I supported the Gov, thinking that he had a plan to govern, however it quite obvious that he doesn’t have one.
