Senate passes resolution apologizing for slavery.
On Thursday, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed a resolution apologizing for slavery and racial segregation.
The measure, now with the House of Representatives, includes a disclaimer making it clear that it does not support or authorize reparations by any means.
It makes perfect sense for the U.S. to apologize for slavery and not have to worry about reparation now that it is broke.
