    Unless they give the LAND back to the Gilbert family, the apology at the end doesn't mean anything at all. 110 acres of land was stolen, and an empty apology from a THIEF is meaningless.

      But if that happens, what do the people whom had it stolen before that get? My people were forced off that land too. Hung, whipped, raped, and so forth. It was ALWAYS stolen land.

Whether the person or group is Black, White, Native American, or ANY recipient of clear-cut, verifiable theft, let's hear the merits of their case, and find a way to help.

      Didn't they sell up and move on? Already at the point In the story when mention was made of 110 acres, I already knew why Mr Gilbert had to die. And why they had the gall to imprison a widow in fresh grieving straight after. I suspect she was also destined to exit the jail house in a body bag. And the syndicate that orchestrated the arrest and murder, from the town leaders at the helm all the way to the officer acting in self defence, already knew how they would split the proceeds of sale.

    I cannot stress enough how crucial it is for our elders to pass on our oral history. And for the younger generation to be respectfully persistent enough in obtaining this. Especially as sociopolitical and cultural barriers have limited usual methods of documentation and archiving. Not just the good, but the bad and the ugly. Fairy tales are for that warm cuddly feeling. The Heroes' journeys are for inspiration, reconciliation and healing. We should encourage our reticent elders, the repositories of these narrations, to overcome the darkness and gut wrenching intergenerational humiliation that has kept these nightmares internalised. To pass on this oral inheritance that money cannt buy once they're gone.
    I believe the documentation of, and accessibility to these truths will form an important piece of the jigsaw of the healing of America.
    On a positive note, what a beautiful couple Mr and Mrs Gilbert were. It was his exquisite presence, physically, financially and mentally that his cowardly murderer smashed to a pulp like a deranged thug trashing a sacred collection of art, fuelled by neanderthal spite and foaming at the mouth.

      Let's not forget Mr. Byrd...This happened in 1998.... June 7, 1998, Byrd, age 49, accepted a ride from Shawn Berry (age 23), Lawrence Brewer (age 31), and John King (age 23). Berry, who was driving, was acquainted with Byrd from around town. Instead of taking Byrd home, the three men took Byrd to a remote county road out of town, beat him severely, spray-painted his face,[18] urinated and defecated on him,[19] and chained him by his ankles to their pickup truck before dragging him for about three miles (five kilometers). Brewer later claimed that Byrd's throat had been slashed by Berry before he was dragged. However, forensic evidence suggests that Byrd had been attempting to keep his head up while being dragged, and an autopsy suggested that Byrd was alive during much of the dragging. Byrd died about halfway along the route of his dragging, when his right arm and head were severed as his body hit a culvert.

    If you've noticed, many foreigners are well informed in regards to their history and they are not looked down upon for being educated in history. So why is it reversed here in America?
    Do you tell a grieving spouse who had been cheated on to just "get over it"?
    If someone hurt a loved one of yours and then yells at you to "get over it", and attempts to tell *you* how to feel, and *disregard/discredits* you, how would you feel about that?
    *Yes, forgiveness is possible but we still don't forget* .
    _There must be an acknowledgment, accountability and understanding so that this willful ignorance can't keep spreading like wildfire_ .
    No, we're not saying to constantly live in this mindset but to be aware and well-informed of your history.

    Stories like this anger me like few others. The brutality, inhumanity & evil that African Americans have endured due to White resentment would be unimaginable if we didn't know it to be true. When my (now 27 y.o.) son was in 3rd grade we watched the PBS Doc "Eyes on The Prize." He asked me: "Mom, what did Black people do to make White people so mad at them?" I was dumbstruck for a few seconds before answering him simply:
    "Nothing - Black people didn't do anything." He looked a little puzzled, then turned away & kept watching. I knew that unfortunately, he'd find out the particulars in short time.

      @Fleezus 076 What has happened to AAs and others of African heritage around the globe is part of the same thing only with different s.l.a.v.e.m.a.s.t.e.r.s. We all demonstrated for George Floyd. No one said ''oh, he's just an African American''.

    As a Roman Catholic I must school you; there is a process to sainthood:
    Step I: Servant of God
    After a holy man or woman dies, five years must elapse before their cause can be considered. This allows for objectivity and ensures that they have an enduring reputation for sanctity. This five-year waiting period can be waived by the pope.
    When five years have lapsed, the bishop can officially open the cause, with the approval of the Holy See, and the person is declared a “Servant of God.”
    Step II: Venerable
    The bishop then forms a diocesan tribunal to investigate the life and virtues of the potential saint-or the details of the martyrdom if he is a martyr.
    The results of this investigation are sent to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints in Rome. Upon a favorable review of the cause, the Prefect of the Congregation presents the results to the pope, who then declares the person “Venerable.”
    Fun Fact: If a saint died a martyr, he is declared Blessed rather than Venerable at this stage and gets to skip straight to Step IV!
    Step III: Blessed
    In order for a Venerable to graduate to Blessed, a miracle must be attributed to his intercession. Once this miracle has been rigorously investigated and verified, the pope beatifies the Venerable and grants him limited public veneration, usually just in the diocese or religious order to which he belonged. As mentioned above, no miracle is necessary for
    Step IV: Saint
    One more miracle is required for canonization, both for martyrs and non-martyrs. With the investigation and verification of this final miracle, the pope is able to canonize the saint, who is granted universal public veneration in the Church.
    We (the Roman Catholic Church) is the ONLY Church that can declare someone a Saint
