Wow now they do because times are changing, but before they had no intention on saying sorry.
Good for the AMA for admitting racist policies were hurting patient care. Black doctors helping black patients. Now if we could get poor doctors to help poor patients.
Racism is so 19th and 20th Century. Get with the program, we now pick on the poor and homeless. Nothing says America like kicking people when they're down.
Geez, I am so tired of everyone having to apologize to black people. Just because you are black don't make you any better than any other race.
Blacks had suffered in the US is true no one can deny that. But only in the US can things evolve like they have.
Blacks used to get alot of attention in attempts to right past wrongs. However, blacks dont matter as much now to the politicians now, its all about getting the Latin vote and support.
I am mostly Native American. My people suffered and still do. Do you hear their voice b#tching about the unfairness of how they have suffered. My ancestors walked the Trail of Tears. I don't see anyone apologizing to their descendants. Blacks suffering today is their own fault. Latinos can go back where they came from. They are a pox on our country. Yes, I know, Latinos are the new blacks. Politicians will kiss the backside of any group to get their vote.
