Whereas millions of Africans and their descendants were enslaved in the United States and the 13 American colo- nies from 1619 through 1865; Whereus slavery in America resembled no other form of invol- untary servitude known in history, as Afrieans were eap- tured and sold at auction like inanimate objects or ani- mals; 2 Whereas Africans forced into slavery were brutalized, humili- ated, dehumanized, and subjected to the indignity of being stripped of their names and heritage; Whereas enslaved families were torn apart after having been sold separately from one another; Whereas the system of slavery and the visceral racism against persons of African descent upon which it depended be- came entrenched in the Nation’s social fabrics ‘Whereas slavery was not officially abolished until the passage of the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitu- tion in 1865 after the end of the Civil War, which was fought over the slavery issue; Whereas after emancipation from 246 years of slavery, Afri- can-Americans soon saw the flecting political, social, and economic gains they made during Reconstruction evis- corated by virulent racism, lynchings, disenfranchisement, Black Codes, and racial segregation laws that imposed a rigid system of officially sanctioned racial segregation in virtually all areas of life; Whereas the system of de jure racial segregation known as “Jim Crow,” which arose in certain parts of the Nation following the Civil War to create separate and uncqual societies for whites and African-Americans, was a direct result of the racism against persons of African descent engendered by slavery; Whereas the system of Jim Crow laws officially existed into the 1960’s—a century after the official end of slavery in America—until Congress took action to end it, but the vestiges of Jim Crow continue to this day; Whereas African-Americans continue to suffer from the con- sequences of slavery and Jim Crow—long after both sys- “HIRES 194 1H 3 tems were formally abolished—throngh enormous damage and loss, both tangible and intangible, including the loss of human dignity and liberty, the frustration of careers and professional lives, and the long-term loss of income and opportunity; Whereas the story of the enslavement and de jure segregation of African-Americans and the dehumanizing atrociti committed against them should not be purged from or minimized in the telling of American history; 0S, ‘Whereas on July 8, 2003, during a trip to Goree Island, Sen- egal, a former slave port, President George W. Bush ac- knowledged slavery’s continuing legacy in American life and the need to confront that legacy when he stated that slavery “was. . . one of the greatest crimes of history ‘The racial bigotry fed by slavery did not end with slave or with segregation. And many of the issues that still trouble America have roots in the bitter experience of other times. But howe long the journey, our destiny is set: liberty and justice for all.”; Whereas President Bill Clinton also acknowledged the deep- seated problems caused by the continuing legaey of rae- ism against African-Americans that began with slavery when he initiated a national dialogue about race; Whereas a genuine apology is an important and neces first step in the process of racial reconciliation; ary Whereas an apology for centuries of brutal dehumanization and injustices cannot erase the past, but confession of the wrongs committed can speed racial healing and ree~ on iation and help Americans confront the ghosts. of their past; *HIRES 194 TL 4 ‘Whereas the legislature of the Commonwealth of Virginia has recently taken the lead in adopting a resolution officially expressing appropriate remorse for slavery and other State legislatures are considering similar resolutions; and Whereas it is important for this country, which legally reeog- Cer annrone 10 i 12 13 nized slavery through its Constitution and its laws, to make a formal apology for slavery and for its suecessor, Jim Crow, so that it can move forward and seek ree- oneiliation, justice, and harmony for all of its citizens Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives— (1) acknowledges the fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality, and inhumanity of slavery and im, Crow; (2) apologizes to African-Americans on behalf of the people of the United States, for the wrongs committed against them and their ancestors who suffered under slavery and Jim Crow; and (8) expresses its commitment to rectify the lin- gering consequences of the misdeeds committed against African-Americans under slavery and Jim row and to stop the occurrence of human rights violations in the future. ° “HRES 194 TEL Pope Francis apologized Thursday for the sins and “offenses” committed by the Catholic Church against indigenous peoples during the colonial-era conquest of the Americas History's first Latin American pope "humbly" begged forgiveness during an encounter in Bolivia with indigenous groups and other activists and in the presence of Bolivia's first-ever indigenous president, Evo Morales. Francis noted that Latin American church leaders in the past had acknowledged that "grave sins were committed against the native peoples of America in the name of God." St. John Paul II, for his part, apologized to the continent's indigenous for the "pain and suffering” caused during the 500 years of the church's presence on the continent during a 1992 visit to the Dominican Republic. But Francis went farther, and said he was doing so with “regret.” “Lhumbly ask forgiveness, not only for the offenses of the church herself, but also for crimes committed against the native peoples during the so-called conquest of America," he said to applause from the crowd, ‘Then deviating from his prepared script, he added: "I also want for us to remember the thousands and thousands of priests who strongly opposed the logic of the sword with the power of the cross. There ‘was sin, and it was plentiful. But we never apologized, so I know ask for forgiveness. But where there ‘was sin, and there was plenty of sin, there was also an abundant grace increased by the men who defended indigenous peoples.” Francis’ apology was met with wild applause from the indigenous and other grass-roots groups gathered for a world summit of popular movements whose fight against injustice and social inequality has been championed by the pope. “We accept the apologies that are more than we could have hoped for from a man like Pope Francis," said one indigenous leader, Adolfo Chavez. The apology was significant given the controversy that has erupted in the United States over Francis’ planned canonization of the 18th century Spanish priest Junipero Serra, who set up missions across Califomia. Native Americans contend Serra brutally converted indigenous people to Christianity, ‘wiping out villages in the process, and have opposed his canonization. Francis’ apology was also significant given the controversy that blew up the last time a pope visited the continent. Benedict XVI drew heated criticism when, during a 2007 visit to Brazil, he defended the church's campaign centuries ago to Christianize indigenous peoples. He said the Indians of Latin ‘America had been “silently longing" to become Christians when Spanish and Portuguese conquerors violently took over their lands. “In effect, the proclamation of Jesus and of his Gospel did not at any point involve an alienation of the pre-Columbus cultures, nor was it the imposition of a foreign culture,” Benedict told the continent's bishops. ‘Amid an outcry from indigenous groups, Benedict subsequently acknowledged that "shadows accompanied the work of evangelizing" the continent and said European colonizers inflicted “sufferings and injustices" on indigenous populations. ‘Church officials have long insisted Catholic missionaries protected indigenous peoples from the abuses of military colonizers and were often punished by European colonial powers as a result. Francis' own Jesuit order developed missions across the continent, educating the indigenous and turning their communities into organized Christian-Indian societies. The Jesuits were expelled in the 17th century. Mexican Bishop Raul Vera, who attended the summit where Francis made the apology, said the church ‘was essentially a passive participant in allowing natives to become enslaved under the Spanish “encomienda" system, by which the Spanish king granted land in conquered territories to those who settled there. Indians were allowed to live on the haciendas as long as they worked them. "It's evident that the church did not defend against it with all its efforts. It allowed it to be imposed," ‘Vera told The Associated Press earlier Thursday. He noted that John Paul had previously asked forgiveness of the world’s indigenous. But he said Francis’ apology was particularly poignant given the setting. Campesino leader Amandina Quispe, of Anta, Peru, who attended the grass-roots summit, said the ‘church still holds lands it should give back to Andean natives. The former seat of the Inca empire, ‘conquered by Spaniards in the 16th century, is an example. "The church stole our Jand and tore down our temples in Cuzco and then it built its own churches — and now it charges admission to visit them," she said. Francis' apology was not the first. After his 1992 apology, John Paul II issued a sweeping but vague apology for the Catholic Church's sins of the past during the church's 2000 Jubilee. A year later, he apologized specifically for missionary abuses against aborigines in Oceania. He did so in the first ever papal email. ‘In 2000, during the Vatican's Holy Year, the Catholic Church apologized to Brazil's Indians and blacks during a ceremony in Brazil for the "sins and errors" committed by its clergy and faithful over the past 500 years. A Vatican cardinal representing John Paul participated in the ceremony, which saw the head of Brazil's bishops conference ask God for forgiveness for the sins committed against brothers, especially the Indians. Earlier Thursday, Francis denounced the "throwaway" culture of today's society that discards anyone who is unproductive as he celebrated his first public Mass in Bolivia, South America’s poorest country. “It is a mentality in-which everything has a price, everything can be bought, everything is ne he said. "This way of thinking has room only for a select few, while it discards all those who are unproductive." ‘The government declared a national holiday so workers and students could attend the Mass, which featured prayers in Guarani and Aimara, two of Bolivia's indigenous languages, and an altar carved from wood by artisans of the Chiquitano people. Ina blending of the native and new, the famously unpretentious popechanged into his vestments for the Mass in a nearby Burger King. ‘The day, however, threatened to be overshadowed by the Bolivian president's controversial gift to Francis upon his arrival: a crucifix carved into a hammer and sickle Both the Vatican and the Bolivian government insisted Morales wasn't making a heretical or political statement with the gift. They said the cross, dubbed the "Communist crucifix," was originally designed bya Jesuit activist, the Rey. Luis Espinal, who was assassinated in 1980 by suspected paramilitaries
