Yeah like owning slaves isn’t enough on its own.
Where the frick do people like you come from? Do you not realize that history is just that. People back then owned slaves even before America was even thought of. Why not hold Egypt accountable for slaves? You hold the founding fathers of this country accountable for what? Owning slaves when owning slaves was what happened back then. Does it make it right? NO but dumb fuks like you want to wash away something that can't be changed. Without this country's past there is no present day America and don't act like things haven't changed for the better INCLUDING BLACK PEOPLE. I work and see successful black people all around me every day. Finally quit watching your Fake arse news and look around there are no cops pulling black people out of the cars daily and please if you don't like this country just change your citizenship and leave it. Rant over

I’ll say this: just because something was common doesn’t mean we shouldn’t acknowledge it as wrong.
We do generally look harshly upon historical figures for act that were common then but generally considered immoral.
The Roman emperors aren’t exactly held in high esteem for their morality.
Let me ask you, how does acknowledging their wrong erase history more than ignoring them?
You absolutely can’t remove Washington from history and I am have said I hold Him in pretty high regard. I don’t Put a statue of Washington in the same realm as Lee or even Calhoun.
That’s being said the side that keeps harping on erasing history is the side that’s defending this whitewashed version of history.
You can’t rant about how far we’ve come as a country and tell everyone who doesn’t like it to leave.
We didn’t come this far as a cpu try because people who didn’t like it left.
And I love say this. I’m a proud American. I think We get most things right. I don’t See anything wrong with America that can’t be fixed by what’s right with America.
