The problem with cash reparations is that the black population is too high for the country to afford it.
As of 2012 there were 44.5 million blacks. If you add $1 Trillion to the national debt to pay out reparations, that averages just $22,500 per person. If you look at a difference making figure, say $500,000 per person, the cost is over $22 Trillion. This is not possible.
Cash payments are not going to happen.
