WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The U.S. Senate on Thursday passed a resolution
apologizing to African-Americans for the wrongs of slavery.

While this is a symbolic gesture, maybe it will be meaningful to some. The
real apology for slavery is equal opportunity regardless of race, creed,
sex or national origin. I think MLK Jr. said it best when he said " I
have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation
where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the
content of their character. "

Race relations in the US is not perfect, but we have some a long way.

I wonder if Harry knows that there were Black slave owners also.



Harry knows very little. This post was a troll, nothing more.
