Calls for Black people to 'get over slavery' criticized

Original: White people telling black people to "get over slavery" basically just don't want to learn the lessons history taught us

A widely shared comment argues that white people telling Black people to 'get over slavery' are really refusing to confront the lessons of history. The remark, circulating on social media with tags including antiracism and human rights, has drawn engagement from users discussing how societies should remember slavery and its lasting legacy rather than dismiss calls for accountability.

Why now: Ongoing debates about racism, historical memory and how slavery should be taught and acknowledged are prompting strong reactions online.
