Not gonna lie: Triggering racists is our favorite game here at Newsbroke. That's why we're diving into the history of reparations and looking at the legacy of the Reconstruction, or the "second founding of America." Get ready to spot a familiar pattern of white backlash to civil rights, as well as some choice Bill & Ted references. #Excellent!! #Reparations #Newsbroke
