It must have been a great consolation to her defeated ancestors that in Brazil they were still able to enjoy the precious right to own other people for another 23 years - until the party was ruined once again.

Seriously, do you ever hear slavery condemned without it being American slavery? Do you think these other countries are still beating themselves up over it?

Only in countries like Jamaica, where the vast majority of the population are descendants of slaves.

Condemning Jamaican slavery is easy and cheap.

The fact that America acknowledges the moral flaw of its slaveholding past is a good thing, it betokens a national conscience in working order - the problem is that the American left completely ignores the great sacrifices America made to put an end to slavery.

The American left ignores the fact that America is the only country in the world where the descendants of former slaves enjoy a standard of living and a social status higher than that of almost any historically free demographic group.

Britain acknowledges that the country played a leading role in the slave trade. Brazil recognizes that slavery has led to much of the racism seen in that state today.

The United States is not alone in owning up to a slave-owning history at all.

In contrast, some people should stop trying to sweep the history of slavery in the United States under the rug.
