OK, let’s see. You are making an equivalence argument for the beef black people have about slavery to the beef Americans (some of us) have against Tojo and the Japs for the unprovoked and murderous and cowardly attack on the US and the torture of US servicemen.

I might point out that white people gave their lives, and took other white mens lives (about 700,000 of them) to free the slaves.

But, OK, I get where you are coming from.

Actually I was using that logic to expose your flawed reasoning that the Japanese of today are responsible for what happened in WW2.

I personally don't believe white people of today have any responsibility for slavery or Jim Crow. It then follows that the Japanese of today should not be held responsible for what happened in WW2.

If we carry grudges about what happened in previous generations, then there is enough history out there for everybody to hate everybody else.
