After watching MTV's recent safety pin segment on white guilt, my wife had a brilliant idea that I don't know why I never thought of before: Shouldn't blacks apologize as well for their role in slavery?
We've all heard about the "Uncle Tom's" that helped white slave owner oppress blacks. In fact, it is well reported that the first slave owner in America was black (Anthony Johnson). So why all the fuss about making white people apologize, and express a perpetual amount of regret ad nauseum when blacks are known to have had an equal role? Shouldn't we be asking MTV, Black Lives Matter, and the NAACP to require blacks to apologize and express what horrible people they are right along with white people?

They should demand an apology from the people who sold them to the Dutch Slavers.

Every black and mulatto in America should be forced to pray 5 times a day to White people for allowing them to live in this country.

People don't should apologize for things that their ancestors did period. We're not our ancestors and we had nothing to do with the crimes they may have committed.

No, because absolutely no one has any connection to the slave trade 200 years ago. It's time to just drop it and fight the slavery of the day. Forced prostitution, sweatshops, wage slavery, etc...

For all we know the blacks who sold other blacks into slavery were themselves sold into slavery. Really, they should be apologizing to themselves.
