“The United States is founded on an idea, one embedded in our Declaration of Independence, that all men and women are created equal. It is abundantly clear today we have not lived up to that idea, but we have not fully walked away from it either,” Biden said.

I’m tired of apology tours. But slavery is America’s original sin.

Nobody listens to this retard anyway. Did he just wake up and say some bullshit about America then go back to sleep?

I guess he does not want to offend the Middle East and elsewhere where slavery was practiced long before America was discovered and settled and where it continues to even this day.

He should give a full pardon retroactive for the United States. I think he can do that.

"I have learned that while history can be hidden, it cannot and should not be erased. It should be faced. It’s our duty to face our history – the good, the bad and the ugly, the whole truth."
Seriously? Is now biden afraid of being erased from history by his eraser wokeys?

I am truly sickened by anyone on this thread who was alive during slavery and owned slaves.
I can’t abide it.
