        It's being forced upon us to propagate "white guilt" and "white privilege." History is fine. But things are crazy.

        Really? Does becoming a journalist these days automatically regulate a person to feed off of and reignite race wars?

        Slavery was horrible but it happened way before any of us were born. It doesn't exist today at least not in my circle

        I would argue the forgetting happens more often than the remembering.

        last time I checked we had moved on from slavery. I've never in my life felt a sense of racism towards another race.
