Question

How come Native Americans got casinos and stuff, but Africans didn't?

Answer 1

Because retribution laws are random, inconsistent, racist, and impractical. And do you honestly think that the money that those Casinos generate go to the tribes?

People need to stop caring about who got yanked out of whose crotch and move forward. And I think that if a black person feels that they where truly, personally, wronged by slavery they should feel more then welcome to go back to their country of origin. It's just like Marley song,

"Old pirates, yes, they rob I;

Sold I to the merchant ships,

Minutes after they took I

From the bottomless pit."

But I honestly think that you'll always have someone screaming for retributions, no matter what the circumstances. In Guam, some Chamorros want retributions from the US military for building bases after when emancipated them from Japanese concentration camps.

The fact of the matter is that the only people that should be given retributions are people who have been directly wronged. Like say, living Japanese nationalist who where thrown into prison camps during WWII... Which we did.

But if none of this is sinking in, well I'll be glad to get my share as an Irish American.

Answer 4

The casinos and such are an attempt by the government at allowing the tribes to try and become self sufficient and make money, since we took all their land and moved them onto to reservations that are not suitable to their tribes lifestyles.

Slaves had no property to begin with, so the same issues wouldn't apply to their descendants. That's a totally different issue.

Answer 5

I feal your pain man but what the US did to Native Americans is way past slavery. This was their land and we pushed them to the parts that did not have much of any utility. Then we gave them hand outs and made them live in ways that gave them almost no chance to do well. Your race was set free but Native Americans are still held down and some of the stuff they still get are not a help (poor health care, unhealthy food, hand outs that make it less worth it to try). Africans should not want to be in Native American shoes.

Crack cocaine offered a higher return rate for an initial investment.

Answer 7

How come you only see Arabs and Indians (not Native American)

running the convenience stores, gas stations, dough nut shops, ma and pa motels..and such shops in certain areas and not Africans?

I don't see many Africans doing this ..but this is due to Demographics or other such stuff

why the silly question when you know the answer?

To be an entrepeneur you have to be tough and if you think it is easy

running one of these business..like a Casino?

But with the Native American's the governement stepped in a long time

ago and gave them the green light to open legal casino's

But the people voted this in! Where was you? home sleeping when

you should have been paying attention to the local elections

Michigan has 20 Indians run Casinos..I don't care..as I don't indulge

but I do buy a lottery ticket every week..so
