This is my opinion and I hope you agree with me if you are an American ( born and raised, or just a honest resident ).First the bad, America has committed genocide ( american indians ), America has commited murder of innocent civilians with Atomic bombs in war time ( Hiroshima and Nagasaki 250,000 killed ). As a real American I believe these events were horrible and unexcusable!! As I hope you do as an American. Those days are over. As a country we have learned from our mistakes and have grown into a very smart and understanding country. We ( American's) truly value human life and love our brother no matter what or who you are. That is me and my american brothers. Don't ever judge us on a few idiots out there that do harm to others. I am not He!!!! I hope you aren't either..Stand strong because some people are trying to brain wash you into thinking America is bad. True America is Freedom, Love, Mercy, loyalty, togetherness and so on.. We will stand strong at the end.

Where to begin on this one, first off lets take that 'genocide' part. First off it was a war, yes war with the Native Americans, second the Atomic bombs actually saved lives in Japan. Japanese were extremely loyal and would have fought bitterly, including women and children. Which is worse, dropping an Atomic bomb or asking our soldier to kill hundreds/thousands (or perhaps millions) of women and children in an effort to end the war? Second off both of these actions were part of WAR! The problem is that today's American citizen wants to look back and blame any action that might have killed someone during war and say its wrong. This is why we lost Vietnam, we must wake up and realize that WAR IS H*LL

I agree that one should not be judged based on others actions.

At the same time while you acknowledge the past, which is a great first step, it is not enough. Why? Two main reasons:

1. Racism and Oppression still exist today. Genocide and Cultural Genocide is being committed in other countries as we speak at our hands. Cultural Genocide and Racism still exist in our country today and little is being done to make that change, just ask any person of color.

2. Intergenerational Trauma. One can feel pain that has been experienced by their ancestors. The trauma is passed down through generations. It is similiar to PTSD (post truamitic stress disorder). And there are events that still occur today such as acts of racism, especially institutional racism, that trigger the pain of that trauma. Until everyone can acknowledge the past and work towards change many will not be able to heal.
