Recently, Black America has been portrayed as the most maligned and persecuted people group in history, and the perpetrators have been identified as Europeans and their descendants. While the treatment of black people, worldwide and in America, by Europeans was terrible to say the least, it is the lack of forgiveness for those past sins which holds the descendants of African slaves in bondage today. Facing the truth about our own sins and forgiveness is the key to true freedom and prosperity for all of mankind, and especially those in America, black, white, brown and anyone else.
