Nope, my guess is that it will just chisel a bit more away of the structure that holds this country together. What racial divide? Seems like the only folks I hear making a giant deal out of everything "racial" are the whites. They seem to think that ONLY they know what is good for minorities and seem to think they know exactly how to punish a scape goat for something that happened to someone else that no longer lives. Sorry, but I am not going to take the blame to make some of you feel better. Funny thing about folks that insist on doing "right" is that it is always someone else that has to pay for their bright ideas. You can't fix history. The truth is there. If you wish to teach it, then put it on the time line of U.S. History and teach it along with the hundreds of thousands of good folks that died to make things right.....and succeeded. You do not need to make a holiday and think that it's going to make history change.
