[quote=Anonymous]Part of the problem is the teaching of history in schools all over the country. This is what happens when only part of the story of slavery has been told. We are all taught that slavery happened, but the ramifications of that dreaded era in our collective history has not been fully examined by most outside of those purposely seeking it out. We need to teach history in a way that is truly representative of those that were involved in that history so that we may be able to develop empathy for the plight of others. I have read some very clueless and, quite frankly, ignorant responses throughout this thread and it just goes to show that maybe in order to move forward we need to revisit how we reflect on the experience of people in this country. As a Black person I can no more blame the many white people for their ignorance than I can Black people who have not been taught anything else. [/quote]
