Thousands To Rally for Reparations Apology Also Sought For Slave Descendents By Manny Fernandez Washington Post Staff Writer Friday, August 16, 2002; Page B01 Thousands of African American activists plan to bring their demands for reparations from the U.S. government for centuries of slavery and racism to the Capitol tomorrow, where hundreds of slaves toiled during its construction more than 200 years ago.
