As we continue to see the Human Rights of Black people in America violated, we petition the United Nations to come to their aid. Black people in America have never been apologized to by the white leaders and their institutional enslavement. (ordinary white people wouldn't have enslaved anyone without the support of their government)
It's nothing hidden that what they/their ancestors did is/was evil, but it's even a greater form of EVIL today to claim that "we're all humans, let's move on", without acknowledging and repenting from what we/our ancestors did. Unless you're still saying black people are subhumans.
Why do we always expect black people to forgive, when forgiveness only comes after repentance? If we refuse to repent, why should we be forgiven? Even God doesn't do that?
While we have compensated other groups of people that were wronged, we don't even want to talk about the evil we did/are still doing to black people in this country.
It is NOT only about a flag or only a symbol that should be taken down. It's NOT only about punishing an individual influenced by a racist system nor showing sympathy at the destruction caused or instigated by a system that was built upon the destruction of black people. For there to be any form of healing in this nation, we MUST first start by apologizing. Please sign and share so that the whole world would see and understand that in the 21st century, America refuses to apologize for her evil foundation. It is NOT duty of the first black president to do so, but a white person who would also symbolizes the race that enslaved black people. It is the Human Right of the Black people in this country to be healed and that healing can NOT come without an official apology. NO games, no Strings attached and NO tricks to water it down as, it has always been done. Slavery was a public thing so too should be the apology.
In 1988, President Reagan signed the Civil Liberties Act to compensate more than 100,000 people of Japanese descent who were incarcerated in internment camps during World War II. The legislation offered a formal apology and paid out $20,000 in compensation to each surviving victim. http://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2013/08/09/210138278/japanese-internment-redress
If you just happened to be reading the 67-page Defense Appropriations Act of 2010 (H.R. 3326), tucked away on page 45, in between sections detailing how much of your money the U.S.
