This Petition is to Order the Former Slave States to Pay Restitution for Disruption of Our Blood Line.

As African-Americans, we would like to know our blood line.  We would like to get DNA testing that would allow us to search for our blood line at the expense of the former slave states' government.  Why should we have to pay in order to know who we are, where we are from, and who and where our people are?  Our ancestors didn’t ask to be kidnapped, bought, and sold as free labored here in the “Good Ole USA.”

YES!! We deserve to know our history. They took everything else from us, they should at least cover the cost of finding our roots.

Its time to learn the truth about where we come from. Being in the dark for this long is just another part of the injustice.
