This answer should be instructive for people who stupidly argue that racism hasn't existed in America for a long time and act as though it is ancient history.
America wasn’t the only country in the world with bigotry.
Or Montreal or QuebecOr Alabama
When did the country pay restitution for those wrongs?Not only have the wrongs been admitted, but we as a country have created laws that make racism and discrimination illegal.
Actually you don't want it taught to your children.We also teach it to our children in school as a way to educate them on our terrible history of racism.
Some do, some don't. Too many still deal with racism and discrimination.As a result of these things, blacks now thrive in our society.

Why were Japanese-Americans owed?None owed.
Our history in this country goes far beyond just slavery and the real crimes of slavery are not taught in school.Everyone is taught about slavery in school.
BS, white folks have never endured the injustice in this country that black folks have.Same with every race.
What happened 50-170yrs ago affects us today.Do you Ever Not Entirely Live in 50-170 years ago ?
Only if you insist on living in the pastWhat happened 50-170yrs ago affects us today.
You are a prime example of it's not the past, racism in America is alive and well.Only if you insist on living in the past
But keep it up, you might score some money off of guilt-ridden white libs someday

BS, white folks have never endured the injustice in this country that black folks have.
Not in thinking reality but it’s a great choice by dummies to try and hold people of today directly responsible for 50-170 years agoWhat happened 50-170yrs ago affects us today.

You didn't have a decision on anything else that has happened either, but they still happened.They weren't.
Can't blame me though, I didn't make that decision.
Most of it I learned after I became an adult, because most black history was not taught in school and in predominately white schools it is still not taught, even though, it is a large part of American History.Where did you dig up the history from, your backyard?
Our history is taught, and most of it in school.
What was it for whites to endure when they were on the giving side of it?But they do and have endured racism.
Are you calling me a racist?You are a prime example of it's not the past, racism in America is alive and well.
Because idiot America as a country benefitted from slavery, Jim Crow and many other atrocities that were done against her citizens of color.Not in thinking reality but it’s a great choice by dummies to try and hold people of today directly responsible for 50-170 years ago.
It's amazing how I have never heard the word "victimhood" when folks speak of the Jewish Holocaust and what they had to endure.Feelers can’t break free of their victim hood over decades and centuries ago. Helps them try and avoid responsibility for their own self created current bad conduct with bad outcomes.
Dumbwinger:
Old stories he heard? Who did he hear them from? How can a racist debunk the racism and discrimination a black man had to endure? That's just it, many folks didn't have pants to pull up.Already a thread on this. Jackson is just repeating old stories he heard. I debunked his BS. When does the pandering BS end? Pull up pants and go to work. Yes, sir. Yes, ma’am.
