Reconciliation and reparations
Metaphilosophy 41 (4):546-562 (2010)
| Abstract | Abstract: This article provides an account of the meaning of reparations and presents a brief explanation as to why African Americans believe they are entitled to reparations from the United States government. It then goes on to explain why reparations are necessary to address the distrust that is thought to exist between many African Americans and their government. Finally, it rejects the belief that reparations require reconciliation. | |||||||||
