Answer 1

Answer:

If i could remove one event from our history, I would choose slavery.

Explanation:

I choose it because it was the most horrific time in history for African Americans. Slavery has changed everything. Things may not be as severe like in the past but there's still racism, colorism, etc. It's still difficult for African Americans to earn respect from upper class white people. The main effect slavery has left is police brutality. it's nothing new of course. Back then, people were lynched (hung on trees), attacked by dogs and hoses filled with water. Now people are just getting shot and look at a certain way just for walking across the street.
