There is so much of this stuff going around nowadays (racial divide, People getting offended so easily, etc,.) in this country It makes me wonder how long until people start saying that it is racist for white people to take pride and be proud of their Ancestors and their Accomplishments?
I think people who do Family History and Genealogy should be concerned about this.
I have mainly European ancestry with some Native American ancestry as well. I am Proud of both my European and Native American Ancestors (most of them). It doesn't make me a Racist. I take pride in some of my most recent Ancestors and their heritage. They were not bad people (most of them). They may have done things I don't agree with but no one perfect.
Black People take pride in their Roots, Heritage, and Ancestors and so do Native Americans nothing wrong with that. They should.
So why can't white People take pride in their roots and heritage as well? Why can't we also be proud of some of our Ancestors as well? I am not proud of the ones who owned Slaves or fought on the Conferdate Side in the Civil War.
There are good and bad people in all races. tHy all have a good and bad history.
Im trying to figure out how this negates American slavery
This oh well, he did it so i did too. I don't get how that ties into anything I said about American History.
It's how the world worked back then. It's still how the animal kingdom works now.
So what about you letting millions starve in the 3rd world (while you do NOTHING) and enslaving and murdering animals by the billions. How do you think the future will view you and your history.

Im a vegan
I didnt know enslavement of animals can be compared to black slaves.
Wow i didnt know white people were the only ones who voted. Could it have also been the large percentage of black and latino voters as well?
Nope
Latino isn't a race. And the vast majority of those with Latino ethnicity identify as White.
As far as the Black vote, the vast majority of it takes place in states that vote Red.
