What does the government have to apologize for? Did the Germans aplologize to the Jews? Did the Egyptians apologize to the Isralites? Did the English apologize to the indentured servants? Does the African Americans think they are special? What about the sharecroppers that worked for pennies? I say "Get a Life" already and quite teaching your children that the white honkys enslaved your race. Those people on both sides have been dead for a hundred plus years. Also, what about the black people in Africa that sold their own people to slavery and still doing it.
If the Government apologizes then the African American people will ask for compensation next. Hasn't WELFARE been enough? Personally, I'm sick of the whole mess. This from an over 40 white female that grew up in poverty wondering where my next meal may come from.
