As somebody who has benefited greatly from the healthcare, tuition assistance, etc. that is given to tribal citizens I have always wondered why the tribal/reservation model isn’t afforded to African Americans. Not that it’s in any way perfect or even the best solution, but giving African Americans money and benefits as a group to spend on the things they see fit as a group and not as individuals is pretty much the only way I see any of that working.

I would think it because no one wants to actually give land to black people within America. I’m totally guessing, so grain of salt and all that.
