Glad to know Charleston will finally achieve racial harmony.

[proust]

more feel good virtual signalling. Why do people think liberals are competent to run any position in government?

[Scrambler Bob]

I wear cotton underwear.

I’m sorry.

[RideForever]

Yeah, that should happen about the time the Muslims here apologize for providing the slaves in the first place.

[lastchance]

No. They. Musn’t.

[CodeToad]

When are blacks going to apologize for their role in slavery, being slave owners and the ones who captured and sold their fellow blacks into slavery, not to mention legally starting to hold their fellow blacks as slaves??

[marktwain]

An apology by people not remotely involved in the events, a hundred and fifty years after they happened, is only political theater and virtue signaling.

It is obscene.

[AppyPappy]

It’s rather insincere to apologize for something you didn’t do. It’s almost mocking them.

[jughandle]

...and opens themselves up to countless demands for reparations for which they’ll be obligated, according to the leftist mindset.

[I want the USA back]

You apologize for what you did. Dead people can’t apologize, so shut up.

[null and void]

How would America look today if the Africans sold to America by the muslim slavers were treated the same as the ones they shipped to Arabia?

Arabia has no race problem today because the mulsims had allah their slaves fully emasculated.

Put that in your NOI pipe and smoke it Farrakhan!

[moovova]

While they’re at it...they should rename the famous tourist attraction Slave Market to Diversity Row.

[DiogenesLamp]

Leave it dead you @$$holes. No good can come of this virtue signaling crap.

[cyclotic]

Did y’all notice the article said apologize for the FIRST TIME?

Looks like they’re planning to make this an annual event.

Oh goody.

[upchuck]

Charleston becomes bluer each day. Shame.

Meaningless rituals, and the latest validation of Never-Ending Black Victimhood, nothing more.

[apocalypto]

This is stupid, makes apologies a joke, something not to be believed. I mean, the citizens of today's Charleston had no role in the slave trade.

It does sound though those in North Korea would appreciated where on can be sent to prison for alleged acts of distant relatives and ancestors one never knew.

[luvbach1]

Not a good move since nobody alive in Charleston is responsible for the slave trade nor any who suffered slavery. It will only renew demands for reparations.

[fella]

Some of my distant relatives were shipped into Charlestown from New Gate Prison in the 17th century.

“the resolution was first brought to the city council by Charleston group the Social Justice Racial Equity Collaborative.”

“Get the F out of my office!”

[Williams]

Because they were all so involved in what ended 150+ years ago. /s
