Recently I had a very disappointing conversation with a former high school classmate about the current racial climate in the United States. His position was the slavery was a long time ago and Blacks should just buck up and get with the American program. Part of his defense was that Africans helped foster the slave trade. This is a true statement in context but I was most dismayed that he has done no historical, political, or economic research. I present the following video for everyone to take a moment and realize not only how and why we got to this point but how the situation is compounded by centuries of lies and misrepresentations.
