How many of us have ever watched the PBS Program "Who do you Think You Are". I have watched episodes where black celebrities have been brought face to face with evidence that they are descended from slaves. When they see the evidence in black and white in front of them it reduces them to tears.

The saying Walk a Mile in my shoes applies.

Having said that, I still cannot agree with removing the history of this country. Whether we like it or not, it happened and removing the evidence does not remove the history books. We keep the remains of the concentration camps in Germany and other Eastern European countries to remind humanity to never let it happen again. Maybe we should be doing the same thing here.
