Yes please. I have Irish ancestry and I demand some money.
The Irish Slave Trade ?? The Forgotten ??White? Slaves
Also, anyone who has ancestral roots in any territory conquered by the Romans likely had ancestors who were enslaved by them. Get your asses to Rome and claim your windfall!
And the African Americans shouldn't just stop at claiming reparations from the US. They should also hit up the UK, Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and the Arab countries.
Arab slave trade

Arab slave trade was the practice of slavery in the Arab world, mainly in Western Asia, North Africa, Southeast Africa, the Horn of Africa and certain parts of Europe (such as Iberia and Sicily) beginning during the era of the Muslim conquests and continuing into the early second half of the 20th century.[1] The trade was conducted through slave markets in the Middle East, North Africa and the Horn of Africa, with the slaves captured mostly from Africa's interior.

Then the African Americans should head to west Africa and hit up those governments for some cash because most of the slaves sent to the Americas were captured and sold to slave traders by their own people.
Atlantic slave trade

The Atlantic slave trade or transatlantic slave trade took place across the Atlantic Ocean from the 15th through to the 19th centuries. The vast majority of those enslaved that were transported to the New World, many on the triangular trade route and its Middle Passage, were West Africans from the central and western parts of the continent sold by other western Africans to western European slave traders, with a small minority being captured directly by the slave traders in coastal raids, and brought to the Americas.

And don't forget to hit up all of the Caribbean island nations and South American countries including Bernie Sanders favourite commune of Cuba.

Far more slaves were taken to South America than to the north. The South Atlantic and Caribbean economic system centered on producing commodity crops, and making goods and clothing to sell in Europe, and increasing the numbers of African slaves brought to the New World.

Looks like lots of people are about to win the "lottery".
