History can not be rewritten, can you correct it? America has finished slavery more than a century ago, but the effects of atrocities still exist. Does the US need to compensate for this? If so, is compensation the answer? To name a few examples, many questions arise from many aspects such as feasibility, qualifications and responsibilities. They are all focused on one question: should the US pay compensation for black Americans?

The millennial generation has the highest compensation rate, but it can also be divided by race. In the convergence survey in 2016, 74% of Americans 18 to 35 years old were opposed to paying compensation for black Americans by the US government. Only 32% of blacks of the same age are opposed to compensation. It is not surprising that there are many voice critics in the movement, as the general public is opposed to the objective of the material movement of black living.

The effect of slavery was always a permanent problem in the African American community.
