But it was Dems who oppressed them:

In a legal maneuver to escape paying Reparations and have the case dismissed, the Democrats convinced the judge that since Rev. Perryman himself had not been personally or directly harmed, he had no standing to file the lawsuit on behalf of all African Americans.

Perryman pointed out to the court that there are a number of cases that address redress, but none that address the impact that one political party, the Democratic Party, had on an entire race of people. "This case is very unique," Rev. Perryman said, "and should not be dismissed because of other unrelated cases."

> The other cases cited by the Democrats, Rev. Perryman said, were either about finding the descendants of slaves to compensate them or finding corporations that profited from slavery. My case against the Democrats, Rev. Perryman told the court, "is about a powerful political party that promoted and practiced racism for 170 years (1792-1962) until it infected our entire nation and affected an entire race." The Democratic Party's racist practices, Rev. Perryman said, continue to affect African Americans today. Most of the acts committed by the Democrats against African Americans were initiated and committed at the state level under the Democratic Party's claims of States’ Rights based on the party's Jim Crow Laws and Black Codes.

You might compare that with the number of lives lost on 9-11. Or the
economic injury incurred from that event.
It would have been cheaper in both lives and money to just suffer
another 9-11 every six or seven years.
Peace and justice,"
