Reparations & Digital Currency
The Reparations Labor Union was founded in 2013 by black Jews who were members of the Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue, the only predominantly white synagogue remaining in Detroit. The white Jews returning to Detroit, Jews for Peace, are viewed by their majority-black neighbors as reparations allies as opposed to gentrifiers.
A worldwide pandemic slowed Detroit's gentrification and recolonization. A city still 80% black voted to pay reparations. The Detroit reparations process has been plagued by a Michigan Democratic Party that is pushing Japanese-styled reparations upon blacks in the form of a version of the Evanston Plan. Specifically, survivors of America's detention camps for the Japanese received a one-time payment of $20,000 for their three years of suffering. The Evanston Plan, enacted by a city 80% white, decided to give a couple dozen blacks reparations in the form of a one-time payment of $25,000 in home ownership assistance. Not even cash.
As a black Jews, the founders of the Reparations Labor Union are aware that some of our co-religionists have family members who still receive reparations from a Holocaust that ended 80 years ago. Why can't black Jews, and all blacks, have the same sort of reparations for more than 400 years of slavery and slaughter? Why can't blacks have a business that generates reparations revenue like the indigenous in Michigan generate monthly income for their nation members?
The Reparations Labor Union seeks 60% ownership of its fundraising arm, Melanin Biotech Productions LLC, with 100,000 households joining the Union. Melanin Biotech seeks to license "Exodus to Mars", its comic book, comic strip, and upcoming video game and swag products. See also www.exodustomars.com and www.exodustomars.net. Members of the Reparations Labor Union would receive the monthly reparations generated by innovative economic development plans such as Pi Reparations, Polygamy Reparations, and an Exodus to Mars esports arena and water park in Detroit and/or Mississippi.

Reparations Awareness Day
Reaching and Teaching the Children
Imagine a video game that teaches reparations and pays digital currency. Would our children pay more attention in school if we paid them reparations in digital currency? Let's disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline! Click the photo above for the Indiegogo link.
Teaching Self-Love
RUBI, reparations and universal basic income, isn't just income — it's self-love, imagined as reparations from a woman's perspective. The harm of partus sequitur ventrem wasn't only economic. If the fruit of a Black woman's womb is cursed, the curse can turn children against the very mother who bore that weight for them. That's not an accident of the law — that's exactly what it was built to do. So the repair has to fit the harm: not a check, but the right to be the self I was never allowed to fully own or be.
Exodus To Mars in Detroit
Detroit is a city whose mason founders declared in 1701, that its point of origin was Mars. Fast forward more than 300 years, America's Blackest City is now Detroit. Are the Martians Black? If so, then why do they reject Maat, the Martian Queen of Justice? Instead, they try to enslave Lady Justice. Her answer: no reparations, no justice, no peace, no piece of the Psyche Asteroid. Detroit will make you believe. At what cost? Must the Apophis Asteroid hit Reparations Dinosaurs? This is the story of "Exodus To Mars".
