And there is a strong connection between the two that becomes clear with Point #4 in this video -- that Germany took responsibility and made efforts to atone for the holocaust; in contrast to many who still refuse to acknowledge that slavery predicated on a belief in white supremacy was the cause of the Civil War and instead substitute in a mythic false narrative.

Ingraining the concept of white supremacy culturally justified the continuation and expansion of race-based slavery as previous forms such as enslaving conquered enemies or religious opponents fell out of favor and is necessary to understanding what still dogs us to this day in the U.S.
