Race and religion have had people fighting for all of time. It's not going to change anytime soon and its the same on both sides. I'm caucasion but I'm 3rd generation German in America so no-one in my family 'owned' slaves so although I'm really sorry that the slave trade existed for so long and hurt so many, I have had no part in it so I owe no apology. But there seems to be a lot of understandable resentment toward whites from blacks and continual racism toward blacks from whites...but what about all the modern day slavery that still exists? Them poor kids in the sex trade and labor trade and the adults in the same trades have the same treatments yet the inferior treatment of women and children continues with out qualms. I know it's wishful thinking to want us as a society to quit living in the past but damn, why can't we just let it go and focus on the ones who are oppressed now? An estimated 27 million people are sold into/ are apart of the slave trade TODAY. Why are still focused on 50 years ago?
