If they take the money, shouldn't they also be required to return to their country of ethic origin?

#3  Not going to demand reparations from the people back 'home' who sold you into slavery? Repatriations no reparations.

#2  Not a lawyer, but it seems to me that part of the injury suffered was being transported in chains from their homeland to Jamaica. Therefore, to right this wrong, along with your cash you get a free ride home. You do get to fly coach this time, which will be a marginal improvement over the original trip.

Either that or the Brit's get to keep their slaves. They paid for them, after all.
