Agree with your sentiment. To her : Honey, if you claim African descent, go live there. See real oppression and poverty in action.

I am not for reparations, however, I am for covering the cost of a one way ticket to any other country with the promise never to return.
If you don’t like it here, leave and take the drain on our resources with you.
