Everyone knows this kind of stuff happened. We all learned it in school in American history. Those who believe the color of skin makes the content of one's character cannot be reasoned with. This video means nothing to them. To the rest of us: none of us owned slaves, none of us lynched anyone of dark complexion and none of us have ill feelings toward anyone based on the color of skin.
Just like if the Islamic/Palestinian/Israeli/Arab oppression and violence of the Middle East stopped tomorrow, I'd forgive faster than it could be questioned to be legitimate on the news. Absolutely, it would not be forgotten, just like I've not forgotten the lynchings, but it would be forgiven. And that's how it should be. While I'm an atheist myself, the Bible's right that holding onto a grudge and not being quick to forgive is an evil. To further expand on that idea, to prejudge based on skin color or ethnicity -- in any direction, be it black to Hispanic, white to black, black to white, white to Asian, etc. -- because of what a completely different person of that race did is a complete evil.
