The Brits granted freedom to American slaves and many of them deserted to the British side. Is that the crime you are referring to ?The British government, then, needs to pay reparations to American Blacks...since it was the British who brought the slaves to the new world.........
For that matter, if we are talking about reparations from descendants of oppressors, to descendants of the oppressed, then the British should then be paying reparations to Americans in general, for the horrific crimes that they committed against us back when we were trying to emerge as a new country.
No, we are talking about the British Navy kidnapping US sailors off of US flagged ships, and the various depredations you caused during the Revolutionary war.
