Unlike systemic racism, “ancestral” racism can never be eradicated. This is the camel’s nose under the tent that will ultimately attempt to permanently institutionalize racism against non-blacks.
Me too! I have an ancestral fear of slavery from both sides, and hence double what she suffers. My Irish ancestors were abducted into slavery by the raiding Barbary Pirates at the same time her African ancestors were. Worse, my German ancestors were made slaves by the Romans and were treated far more harshly in pagan Rome and Athens than hers may have been in a Christian Atlanta.
