I don't see that an apology from the government harms anyone.
You I presume haven't owned any slaves who are now free , so what do you have to apologize for ......nothing.
If the Govt. issues an apology its an admission of guilt and therefore opens up a can of worms for reparations, similar to whats happening in present day Germany , young folks (2 generations away from WW2) having to pay taxes support reparations to Isreal

so whats next , we apologize to the Japanese for Hiroshima and Nagasaki ?
