Absolutely. And there are remnants of slavery in our society such as the gross urban poverty of blacks that needs to be addressed through education and opportunity, but that can be done in a forward thinking way rather than an attempt to correct past wrongs. Slavery was wrong, but what is more wrong is in assuming that people can just "work harder" to improve their circumstances.
