This was taken from the first paragraph of the article from the link you provided, which I am most definitely in favor of and can support....
Mendes-France, the daughter of the Martinique-born writer and leading black intellectual Franz Fanon, clarified that she is not in favor individual payments, as the idea of reparations is often presented in America. She applauded efforts in the Caribbean to sue the British government for centuries of slavery, and recommended that reparations in the US be funneled through the financing and “full implementation of special programs based on education, socioeconomic, and environmental rights.”

Yes, I've been aware of the UN's position for a minute now, but the point I was trying to make is this, because these young black folk ain't playing, one way are another, Reparations will become center focused, and the system will have to be dealt with:
