With the Congress doing some sort of official recognition that centuries of considering a race of people, who’s forced labor helped launch the industrial revolution as chattel property, not human, has had deleterious effects that remain to this day. With voluntary reparations, not forced. A black family in Manhattan Beach CA had their beachfront property seized in 1924 using eminent domain by the city of Manhattan Beach after being harassed by the Klan and others, but not leaving. Last year, the city council voted 5-0 to return the property, worth millions, to the family. No one forced the city. It was a voluntary return. Things like that. Compassion, not disdain. I have no problem with righting past wrongs but you use the term atonement as if there are still guilty parties that must atone for past wrongs.

Like I said, it will never end. You are just trying to satisfy your conscience at the expense of others. You envision a day when someone will say,”Ok, we’re even. “ That’s worse than predicting world peace. Dream on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can name at least 10 people by name right now who I grew up with, childhood friends, who at ten and twelve years old were saying “I hate n***ers”. They still do today, they’ve just had to be a little more accepting due to full integration. Guilty was the wrong word. I should have used responsible. So because you know some truly idiotic racists it should change every one else’s opinion or make them invalid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
