This isn't just about slavery, it's about the subsequent segregation and enforced impoverishment, and institutionalized racism. I was raised during the forced integration of Texas schools of the 70's and 80's. This was the phase after making segregation illegal in the 60's where they went a step further and actually redistricted the black neighborhoods. The black kids were bussed into the white neighborhoods to go to our schools (never the opposite).... White parents were yanking their kids out school left and right (opting for private schools or even moving to all white towns as opposed to letting their kids go to the same school as the "niggers") ..... This isn't just about something that happened 300 years ago (slavery) try more like 25-30 years ago. At this point in our history there were still plenty of race riots, cross burnings, church burning, and racially motivated police violence. And guess what....It wasn't black people with "bad attitudes" instigating any of it.
Looking back now....25 years later it's a lot better than it was, but it still isn't as good as it should be.
I've worked for employers as recently as the 1990's that would call the temp agency and to have them send over some temporary workers, and tell them not to send any "niggers".

My great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather's life had no bearing on me (other than his genetic contribution), nor do I imagine that any black man or woman would say his ancestor's does.
Taken out of context it really has nothing to do with slavery. I can understand how you might have thought it did. I do apologise for saying you were a plank, but I'll keep that reference for another time.
