So what exactly are you suggesting? Sending African Americans back to Africa since no one is capturing and enslaving people there anymore?
Accomplices to crimes are held legally responsible just like the perpetrators themselves.
The problem isn't just about past slavery but ongoing injustices that continue today. It's convenient for white Europeans to kneel before small groups whom they didn't directly harm, aside from perhaps actions of distant ancestors. Yet they don't acknowledge those they're oppressing right now, or the elders still alive who have experienced occupation and genocide firsthand. Americans don't kneel before Native Americans or Vietnamese. French don't kneel before Laotians. Germans don't kneel before Russians. Until nations recognize their responsibility in genocide and the destruction of states, others may strive to undermine our statehood through legal means. It takes courage to acknowledge these harsh realities and seek true reconciliation.
