You guys seriously don't think there is some continuity in the state? Bunch of people die, now it's a totally different state? Sure things evolve, but I'm sure there are a ton of rich people still living in Virginia that are relatives of slave owners; some may even be politicians.

Political, social and economic structures don't just dissapear after one generation. Taking the stance that economic, politicial and social institutions don't affect one another is just ignorant. Virgina, as a political entity, remnants of which still exist to this day, royally [censored] over black people. An apology is quite befitting.
