Robert Johnson, the founder of BET and America’s first black billionaire, is demanding that American “atone” for slavery and racism by paying black people $14 trillion. Vice News interviewed Johnson, who said that he has seen a new kind of reparations taking place.

Solidarity to @MarcDeMesel on his cruel treatment by African police

Comforting Pakistan, which is still recovering from the terrorist attack on APS( Army Public School) Peshawar. Carrying my pain for Paris, who is still dealing with the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in November last year. It's naturally right for us all to extend our solidarity and support to our patron over the inhumane treatment melted on him by the nefarious and unlearned police in Kenya. This is a call for a united front against the inhumane treatment of Mr. Marc in Africa. We cannot continue to ignore and pretend that we are not aware of the incident, or simply hope it fades away on its own. Mr. Marc is pained, we must show our concern and possibly apologize to him for being humiliated in our land. On behalf of the Africans, I extend my sincere concern and apology to Mr. Marc and his family. I request you to watch @MarcDeMesel video from the link below to here know more about the incidence.
