I ran across some interesting statistics recently. Less than 5% of the slaves transported across the Atlantic came to what is now the US. The vast majority went to Brazil and the Caribbean. Yet mention guilt for slavery or the slave trade and almost always the country that pops up in most people's minds as being responsible is the US.
How often do you hear about Brazil, the country that actually took a majority of the slaves, being liable for an apology or for reparations?
Intermarriage is the only complete solution for racial disharmony. A Haitian family that has been friends with our family for 20-30 years ranges the gamut from the darkest African black to fair and blond -- all in the same family! One of that family's members is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, and she is probably 1/8 African descent.
