It also speaks to a national conscience, since our founding, of treating women and minorities as second class citizens. Yet, it seems like a lot of old white guys these days would love it, if the travesties of yore were still in effect in our country. I personally just don't get it.
Why do you think it is a travesty? Do you realize that 100 years from today, your present standards may be considered disgusting, if they follow your logic? As an atheist, I believe that NO ONE that ever existed in the history of the human race, is or was perfect. If I was religious, than maybe 1 or 2 individuals.
