In the House of Representatiaes, U. 5.,JuLy 29, 2008.

Whereas millions of Africans ancl their clescendants \\'cre

enslaved in the United States and the 13 American colo-

nies from 1619 tlrrough 1865;

Whereas slar.,ery in Ameriea resembled no other form of invol-

untary senitudcr knornryr in history, as Africans were c?.lp-

tured and sold at auction like inanimate objects or arti-

mals;

Whereas Africans fbrced into slarrerlr \\rcre bmta,lized, humili-

ated, dehumalized, and subjected to the indigrrit)' of

being strippcd of their names ancl hcritagc;

\&'hereas enslavecl farnilies were torn apart after having becn

sold separatel.l' from one another;

Wrcreas the system of slavery and 1,he rrisceral raeism against

pc,rsons of African dcscent upon which it dependcd be-

came entrenched irr tlre Nation's social fabri<:;

Wlhereas slavery was not officiall;, abolislied until the passage

of thc 13th Amendment to the l]nitecl States Constitu-

tion in 1865 after the errd ofi the Civil War;

\Mrereas after cmancipation from 246 years of slavery, Afri-can-Anericans soon saw the fleeting political, social, and

economic gains thev made during Recortstruction evis-

cerated b;. r'imlent racism, l;mchings, disenfranchisement,

2

Blar,k Codes, and rar:ial segregatiou lau,s that imposed a

rigicl systcm of offlciall;, sanctioned racial segregation in

virtualll. all arcas of lif'c;

\\'hereas the system of de jure raeial segregatiort ktrorvrt as

"Jim Cro\\,," u,hich arose in certain parts of the Nation

tbllowing the Civil \\rar to crea.te separtrte and unequal

sor:ieties fbr rvhites aud Afrir:arr-Americarrs, \\,as a direr't

result of the racism against persons of Afriean clescent

cngendercrd b.1. siavery;

\\'hereas a cerrturv trfter the official end of slavery in Amerr

ica, Federal action vras required during the 1960s to

climinate the dqjure and defa<:to system of .Iim Crow

tlrrouglrout parts of the Natiorr, tlrough its vestiges stilllinger to this clay;

\\'leereas African-Americans continue to sutf'cr from the cour-

plex interplay bet:ween slavery and Jinr Crow-long after

both systems were formally abolished-through enormous

damagc and loss, both tangiblc and intangible, including

the loss of'human dignitv, the fnrstr"ation of careers arrd

professional lives, and the long-term loss of income ancl

opportunity;

Whereas the stor;' of the enslavemerrt and cle jure segregation

of African-Americans and thc delmmanizing atrocities

committerl against them should not be purged from or

mirrimized irr the tellirrg of Americau history;

\Mrereas on July 8, 2003, during a trip to Goree Island, Sen-

egal, a tormer slave port, President George \V. Bush ac-

kttou'ledged slaverl,'s eotttirtuing legary irr Ameriean lif'e

and the nced to confront that lcgacy r,vhen he stated thatslavcry "u,as onc of the greatest crimes of history

slaverl, or u'ith segregation. Arrd manv of the issues thatstill troublc America have roots in the bitter exlrerience

of othcr tirnes. But horvcvor long thc journcy, our destiny

is set: libertl. and justice fbr all."1

Wlhercas Prcsident Bill Clinton also acknorvledgecl thc cleep-

seatcrd problems caused b.v the continuing legacl, of rac-

ism agaiust African-Americaus that began u,ith slaven,

when he initiated a national dialogue a,bout race;

&Ihcrreas a genuine apology is an important ancl necessary

first step irr the proeess of racial reconciliation;

Wlrereas an apolog, for centuries of brutal clehumantzation

and injustices cannot erase the past, but conf'cssion of

the wrongs committed can speed raeial healing and rec:-

onciliation and help Americarrs confront the girosts of

therir past;

\\Ihereas the legislature of the Cornmorn'realth of Virginia has

recently taken the lead in adopting a rcsolution officiall;'

expressing appropriate rernorsc fbr slavery ancl other

State legisla.tures have adopted or are consideriug similar

resolutions; arld

\\'hereas it is iniportant fbr this country, rvhich legalll, recog-

rrized slaver), throug;h its Corrstitution aud its larvs, to

makc a formal apology for slavery and for its successor,

Jim Crow, so that it can move fbnvard and scck rec-

orrciliation, justiee, and harmony for all of its r:itizens:

Norv, thcrefore, be it
