Black Actor Slams California Commission’s $223K Reparations Recommendation

A black actor has condemned the idea of giving six-figure checks to descendants of slaves and suggested that they be given tax-exempt status instead.

Faizon Love, 54, is a Cuban-born American actor most widely known for his roles in “Elf,” “Friday” and “The Meteor Man.”

He said during a recent interview with Vlad TV that the $223,200 reparation payments proposed by a California reparations task force would simply be used to buy luxury vehicles.

“F*** that. That’s another trick, man. You know why? Because that money’s gonna go right back to Cadillac and right back to …  Benz,” Love said, when asked about the California committee.

Love said that African slaves were once considered a “tax write-off” and suggested that, instead of giving ✊African-Americans one large sum of money, they should be given lifelong tax-exempt status.

Love initially claimed that “taxes” in general were created to fund the Civil War, leading to a small dispute with his interviewer, who corrected him and told him that it was actually the income tax.

As they noted, the income tax was passed by Abraham Lincoln
