"REPARATIONS"



I have been hearing a lot about Reparations, and I have decided that I am definitely for it. After all, my name is Biggers, and we know that everyone with the names Biggers, Bigger, Biggars, or Biggar originally came from the town of Biggar in Scotland, which up until 1649, was inhabited by Serfs (Slaves) belonging to the King of England. My ancestors first left there in 1513, during the rein of King Henry VII, and we all know what a "Pip" he was! So there is just no telling how great and wealthy my family might have become, if they had not started out as slaves to those pesky English. So I am requesting that Queen Liz make fair Reparations available to me and all of the rest of us former Serfs.

Since the first Biggers arrived in America in the 1600's, then anybody who ever worked for them as a slave should be able to get some money too, as soon as we get ours from Liz.

"Now that's the way I see it, and you can tell'em I said so!"
