Of course it’s a great thing that America, with its history of slavery and segregation still a shockingly recent memory...
It must be because she's a Brit that she considers this a "shockingly recent memory". I'm not young, and my memories are of bussing, AA, quotas, "diversity" over merit...

Beside not being current history, beside all the white blood shed to end it, the English have a bit of a history with slavery. Amazing Grace was written by John Newton, a one-time slave-trader and subject of the royal crown.

I’d also add that slavery was a part of colonial America. Now who were the colonies subjects of?
