Do you support reparations for black people because of slavery?
Um to some extent, yes.
What about you?
Do you support definitely?
Perfect.
So we have Joel over here, Joel Patrick.
He has a reparation jar.
You guys have the chance to pay him for your crimes.
All right, here we go.
grown men are going to get out their wallets to pay for slavery.
Not much.
All right.
Post-it.
All right.
You have been forgiven for the crimes against my ancestors.
We're here at Youngstown State University today with Joel Patrick.
and I'm here asking people if they will pay me some reparations.
Do you support reparations for slavery?
I, yeah, I guess.
You do?
Okay, perfect.
So you support reparations.
This is Joel who has a reparations jar.
You can actually go ahead and pay reparations right now.
Right now, I don't, I don't really have cash on me.
What?
We take Venmo?
You take Venmo?
How much do you think he deserves for reparations?
How much do you deserve for reparations?
I don't know, man.
A little more than it's in that jar, I guess.
All right, let's fill it.
I would.
I am a college student, though.
You might want to ask donations.
Could you ceremoniously, I don't know, like kiss my foot or something?
Kiss your foot.
That's a little extreme.
I could give you a hug.
Yeah, give me a reparation.
I'll give you a hug.
All right.
Wow, we just ended all the years of slavery.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Do you support reparations for black people because of slavery?
To some extent, yes.
What about you?
Do you support?
Definitely?
Perfect.
So we have Joel over here, Joel Patrick.
He has a reparation jar.
You guys have the chance to pay him for your crimes.
I just gave him $10 for the crime exam.
He did.
$10.
Alright, here we go.
Grown men are going to get out their wallets to pay for slavery.
Alright, post to.
Alright.
You have been forgiven for the crimes against my ancestors.
Are you a professor here?
Yeah.
What do you teach?
Oh, what is those for anyway?
It's for YouTube.
YouTube.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, I would love to be paying reparations.
Okay, here we go.
For slavery, that's all I give is a dollar?
You can keep it.
I want more money than that.
Do you support reparations for slavery?
Yes, but at the moment, I gotta go to exams.
Oh, I'll walk with you.
So you support reparations for slavery.
We have Joel here who has a reparations jar and you can pay right now for reparations.
Alright.
Well, as I said, I apologize for being on the run, but there you go.
You're actually paying.
Yes.
Did you own slaves?
No, I did not, but I mean, I'm not a fan of the history behind it, so.
Okay, thank you for paying for your crimes.
What's your reaction that someone actually paid you?
Well, I just think it shows to show how ridiculous people are in America today.
I've never been a slave.
He's never owned a slave.
That was just the most absurd thing.
He just gave me a dollar.
Like, what am I homeless?
So reparations, like monetary reparations, something that you give back to a group of people because they've been victimized or they've been oppressed.
So for instance, the 2020 Democratic candidates want to impose reparations on white people to pay to black people because of slavery.
Would you support that?
Yeah, I would say with the right conditions.
Yeah, I would support it.
Perfect.
I hope this is a good condition for you because we have Joel here and he has his reparations jar.
Are you willing to give him reparation money?
Why not?
Okay, perfect.
Okay.
How much do you want her to give you?
Well, what is the crimes of an entire country worth?
Um, I'm not really sure.
I don't have a lot of money on me, and I can't put a number.
All right.
You are forgiven for the crimes of your ancestors.
Um, I'm gonna need you to delete the footage.
Um, okay, so can I please have your contact control?
Because I'm gonna send it to my lawyer.
Okay, go ahead.
Somebody said, can you stop filming me?
You said, no, I can film whatever I want, which I agree.
Woo-hoo.
It's a public campus office, so I'm not gonna throw you off campus.
Reparations?
Reparations?
Anybody got some other reparations?
Reparations right here.
Do you support reparations for black people?
Only if there's reparations for women and Native Americans.
Okay, perfect.
So we have Joel over there.
He actually has a reparations jar.
Are you willing to give him some money because his ancestors were slaves?
I don't have any money on me, but he takes Venmo.
He takes Venmo and credit cards.
I would have to research it a lot farther than that.
Well, here he is.
His ancestors were slaves, probably.
I mean, your ancestors probably had slaves, so don't you think you owe him something?
Well, doesn't the world owe me something?
Because my female line were not allowed to vote until, what, 1920?
What if I told you a lot of grown men and even professors have actually paid him money?
Wait, really?
Yeah.
Here.
In Yukstown.
Yes.
No way.
campus Are you serious?
Dead serious here.
What do you think about that?
That's ridiculous.
Do you guys support reparations for black people and the slavery they went through?
I honestly am just not smart enough to know what you're even talking about.
You don't know about slavery?
I mean, sure.
Would you be willing to pay for slavery?
If I had a penny, honestly, I'd give it to you.
Only a penny?
My oppression is only worth a penny to you?
I don't have anything with my point.
But how much would you give if you had it?
I'd probably give to like the animals, small children that are hurt.
But you wouldn't give to people that suffered from slavery.
You didn't suffer from slavery.
How's that truth feel?
Oh, I feel broke.
Will you please pay your reparation money?
I'm broke as s too.
Wait, were you ever a slave?
No.
Was I ever a slave?
No.
Did you ever own a slave?
No.
So if you never owned a slave, and I'm not a slave, who's owed reparations?
This is like a trick question.
I am very confused.
I don't think does anybody need reparations?
Ding, ding, ding.
Got a winner.
Does anybody here feel like they caused slavery?
They were the cause of it.
They need to pay for their crimes.
They had a lot to say when we were over there, but now they don't when confronted with slavery.
It's amazing how white people just don't want to own up to what they've done.
Do you support reparations for black people because they went through slavery?
Um, yes, I do, actually.
Perfect.
So we have Joel here, and you can pay your reparations right now.
Okay.
How much do you want?
What is the suffering of my ancestors worth?
Um, more than I can pay right now.
So, do you want to set up like a payment plan?
Um, no, but I do believe it's the responsibility of our government to take more action.
Alright, pay up.
Oh!
Thank you for paying for the crimes of your ancestors.
You have been forgiven.
I don't know how you would go about doing that.
Well, I have the answer.
We have Joel Patrick here today, and he has his reparations jar.
And you can pay for the crime.
What other forms of payment do you accept?
Venmo.
We accept PayPal.
Oh.
Well, I did not have Venmo.
I did not have PayPal.
And I am broke.
But you would pay if you could.
Yeah, but I don't understand why you're collecting money for it.
Because I'm a black person and my ancestors were slaves.
Yeah, but...
It's like...
I don't...
Do you own slaves?
No, but I do not have a lot of people.
Have I ever been a slave?
No.
So how much money do you owe me?
Nothing.
Ding ding ding.
Well, Joel's here asking for reparations.
Reparations for?
Reparations for slavery.
Okay, I do not have a wallet on me, but I put a business.
Do you have Venmo?
Do you have Venmo?
I do.
It's an actual.
Venmo, that's just the money transfer app, right?
Would it take long to sign up or sign up?
If you don't have it already, we won't let them.
So we're just collecting reparations for slavery, and you just pay me for the crimes that your ancestors committed against my ancestors.
Okay.
What?
Say that again?
You just pay me for the crimes that your ancestors committed against my ancestors.
My ancestors?
Okay, I'm Arab.
I'm also, I'm not sure.
So you definitely.
So you definitely.
Because Arabs put slaves on the ships and brought them.
Okay.
Did you know you did that?
Did you know you did that?
I know some history behind it.
I know they were the middlemen.
Damn, so.
Oh, that jar is looking a little empty.
I'm also from the Caribbean, so I know a lot about slavery.
That jar is looking a little empty.
Yeah, but, um...
Uh...
Are you willing to stand up and say that that's ridiculous?
I don't think I'll pay for it.
I don't think I'll pay for that.
Good job.
You don't have time to pay for your crimes against slavery and...
He takes Venmo, right?
Checks?
You can do $5?
Yeah, what's your money?
Alright, so what we're witnessing is someone willing to pay money to a black person.
Joel Patrick underscore 1776.
Y'all heard that.
Send him some reparation money.
There we go.
There it is.
All right, I got you.
Do you feel better now?
Because of slavery?
It doesn't really make me feel any different.
Oh, maybe you need to pay some more.
Just to know that I'm doing it, you know, makes him feel better.
What about you?
What are you doing?
Where's your part?
I'm good.
You don't want to pay reparations?
No, I don't want to give any money out.
No.
But you still got it.
So that's all that matters, Joel.
Okay.
Well, thank you for the reparation money.
Democrats are saying that white people are responsible for slavery, the white people of today.
So we need to pay money to black people, monetary reparations.
Are you on board with that?
No, not necessarily.
Because the Irish also took part in slavery.
Are you Irish?
Yeah.
Uh-oh.
A couple of my family members might have been slaves?
Taking part in it, yeah.
So, I mean.
Were they slaves or did they have slaves?
No, they were.
So people should be paying you.
Joel, he needs money for reparations.
He's Irish.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, we're gonna give you some reparation money.
Here, no, how about you just zip his book bag?
Okay.
Okay, reparations zip up.
That's what we're doing.
Get this.
So all of the harm that slavery has caused over all the centuries it's existed gone right now with this zip.
