Sure but is that an association you want to reinforce?
- cjpearson 6y agoWhat do you mean? Slavery in America was inextricably tied to racism just as the Holocaust was inextricably tied to Antisemitism or the Civil War was inextricably tied to slavery. None of those aspects should be ignored or downplayed. History can be ugly and uncomfortable, but we should try to learn from it rather than ignore it.
- goodoldneon 6y agoI was only stating my understanding for why the association between slavery and black people is so strong in America. What I want is irrelevant.
