Well, it’s about time. It’s something we have all been waiting for and the world is now rejoicing. It took a lot of time, and apparently a lot of thought and discussion. But, there it is, finally: the Commonwealth of Virginia has apologized for its role in slavery.
RICHMOND, Va. – Meeting on the grounds of the former Confederate Capitol, the Virginia General Assembly voted unanimously Saturday to express “profound regret” for the state’s role in slavery.
Thank God for this.
While we are at it I, as a man, apologize for everything men have done. As a Catholic, I apologize for everything Catholics have done. As a 26-year-old, I apologize for everything 26-year-olds have done. As a husband, I apologize for everything husbands have done. As a human, I apologize for all offenses by mankind. I have profound regret for all offenses.
(End of sarcasm.)
