Our Ancestors will have the last word.
Apologies and acknowledgments

http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=26870

Several institutions have apologised for, or acknowledged, their links to slavery including:

●In March 2002, Deadria C. Farmer-Paellmann, a lawyer and activist, launched an unsuccessful legal action against Aetna , a healthcare benefits company, and others for unjust enrichment through slavery. Legislation in California and Illinois prompted several companies to research their past and some to apologise and make atonement gestures.

●In mid-2000 Aetna, prompted by Ms Farmer-Paellmann, was one of the first to apologise for insurance policies written on slaves 140 years earlier.

●In 2002, New York Life, the insurer, donated documents about the insurance it sold to slave owners in the 1840s to a New York library. It also backed educational efforts.

●In 2005 JPMorgan, the investment bank, apologised that two of its predecessors in Louisiana Citizens Bank and Canal Bank had mortgaged slaves. The bank made its research public and set up a $5m scholarship fund for African- American pupils.

●Lehman Brothers apologised in 2005 for its predecessors links to slavery, while Bank of America said it regretted any actions its predecessors might have taken to support or tolerate slavery.

Wachovia Bank, since acquired by Wells Fargo, also apologised for its predecessors having owned and profited from slaves. It set up a programme offering $1bn in loans for black car dealerships.

●In October 2001 students at Yale University pointed out its past links with slavery. The university noted it had already founded the Gilder-Lehrman centre for the study of slavery.

Brown University has set up a commission to look into links with slavery and how it should make amends.

●In 2006 Tony Blair, prime minister, expressed deep sorrow for the UKs role in the slave trade.

●Last week the US Senate unanimously passed a resolution apologising for slavery and segregation.

  • Formal slavery never ended, it just renegotiated the terms into debt-slavery so it take in the white people too.

    No honor among thieves.

  • Beware: When white people address slavery in past-tense, they're suggesting slavery ended.

  • the modern-day ultra-wealthy beneficiaries of the jewish slave traders from the 1600s, 1700s and 1800s owe the descendants of African slaves untold billions of dollars in reparations but refuse to pay. Instead the fantastical "Holocaust" stories were implemented so that the jews could once again play the role of unjust victims rather than enslavers and criminals. WWII-era european jews were never abused for even one single day the way that African slaves were abused for 250 years.

  • @Afrikanglobal Educate a bid slavery was a bussines that belonged 96% to jews.....

    And in jewish library you can find that every jewish family needed to have atleast 4 - 6 slaves each. And could do with them whatever they want.

    Have a good day

  • Slavery is still a part of the western society!... though it broke all colour barriers!
