38 years is enough to wipe out 100s of years of slavery. I Admit yes alot of white are remorseful and as well they should be but 38 years is no where near enough time to heal those wounds

First of all, you are talking about the passage of the civil rights amendment, not the abolition of slavery. Second, in reality why should I continue to be remorseful, for something I, an individual, my ancestors, also individuals, never ever had anything to do with? I have never mistreated a black person in my life. The reason isn't because I feel responsible for the actions of dead white people. Are you willing to be responsible for all crimes committed by blacks against whites? The rapes and plunders of which you spoke earlier are certainly among those atrocities. Are you trying to heal wounds, or make others to equal those suffered in the past? If that's the case, then we have a problem, and both sides lose. I think the Panthers proved that quite well.
