Hi, Denny:

Your commentary is well said in my opinion. Slavery has been part of civilizations since Biblical times. It was considered the way it was. Our country changed that forever. We should be proud of our belief in liberty for all!

What should be taught is the heroic spirit of blacks who overcame their obstacles to contribute to their own lives as well as many others. In all fields - science, medicine, technology, the arts, farming, education and more - there have been giants who succeeded in spite of disadvantages. Bravo to them. Portraying an entire race as victims does them all a huge disservice. Then they become slaves to a terrible lie.
