There are numerous ways these environmental and health disasters impact future generations, look up cancer alley, where former plantations turned into polluting factories and did an enormous amount of damage. If your ancestors had to go into debt to get medical care, or the food is still contaminated (such as how lead stunts kids) there are just so many ways to make it impossible to succeed in life on the same playing field as everyone who could afford not to be in those environments in the first place, or weren’t effed like this. The damage in human life years and prosperity is unbearably high and long lasting, I hope those who don’t get that grow a heart

I'm tired. It's been 46 years of constant discussions of historic injustices. For others it has been 70 years. There's nothing left for me to learn. There hasn't been for well over a decade. But we keep harping on and on and on about these issues. It's not a matter of what's right. That's been obvious for decades. But we will never change the past. It can only be remembered and commemorated. Just because the political right is frothing at the mouth about these issues irrationally does not mean that underneath their ridiculous hysteria there isn't a kernel of truth. This endless cultural self flagellation is not productive.

You’re so close to the point buddy! People are equally tired of being addressed & I know you’re tired but to be fixed they must be addressed. Have faith that innovation will bring new ideas & positive insights & practices, it always does

I think the full story of these injustices includes the demands of reparations and legal changes to make these things right and stop them from happening again, it’s not about like making you personally feel bad or smth. You can’t really do the meaningful changes without starting the discussion and flow of compassion. There is no kernel of truth in pretending that it didn’t happen is enough to move on or that facing it is more of an unnecessary burden than on history’s victims and future generations at a disadvantage

Now that you know this stuff, you should be helping with the education.this is how we learn and not make the same mistakes.

@@betsywilliams3666 Exactly. The point of discussing these topics is not for 'you' [OP] or for commemoration, or your self-flagellation; It is to avoid future repetition of the same self-interested, wanton, 'over-there' and 'other-people' harm, and--perhaps--reparations (if only by being 'present' to hear them express their concerns, learnings, and 'wants'). OP, I hear your perception of having nothing more to learn from pieces like these, but--without shaming--you may have opportunities for growth, particularly, per the comment above mine--through mentoring the next generation. That said, if you'd prefer to mind your own business, that's a reasonable choice to make. In either case, I wish you and yours peace, gentle reader.
