I did mention "apology" on that WW2 thread. However, I was specifically talking about my sense that an apology should have been given and still should be given to those Black soldiers or on behalf of those Black soldiers who were not allowed to liberate Paris simply because someone (France? USA?) insisted that the Allied army liberating that city must be made up of White soldiers only.
Furthermore, my comment about "apologies" in that WW2 post referred to the information that was posted about German soldiers murdering Black soldiers who surrendered to them, simply because of their race. I felt/feel that the descendants of these soldiers deserve at the very least to have an apology from the German government.

And of much less importance, in my second post to this thread, I wrote that the book that I'm working on includes about 400 of about 8765 of my Mudcat posts. I then said that all of these posts fall into the categories of Black culture, race, and racism. I meant that all of the 400 or so posts in that book are from those categories. A review of my posting history (which can be accessed by clicking on my name in the heading of this thread or any thread) will show that a significant percentage of my Mudcat posts have nothing what so ever to do with Black culture, race, or racism.
