It affects society. Do you truly not believe that things of great magnitude, like slavery, holocausts, world wars, genocides, depressions, pandemics, and such affect societies for generations thereafter? Or do you believe once something like that is over all of its ramifications are wiped out instantly?
Huh ?? It " affects society " ???
Well that's nice and vague and it sounds like a opinion. The Jews seem to have done quite well for themselves since WWII, and all the Vietnamese boat people that came over here in the late 70's and 80's have done quite well for themselves too.
Blaming something that happened Generations ago for the choices that people make to today is far more destructive and counterproductive than the fact that Slavery once existed in this Country and others hundreds of years ago.
