Black americans don't need politicians to give posthumous pardons, they need them to address systemic racism.

That's why I like the U.S. Democratic Party. It's always trying to correct bad policies and laws that target Blacks.
FYI Democrats were the ones that financed and supported the slave trade.

Medicine after death. How can you pardon a dead man ?
The state should rather pay huge amount to their family members. Call it blood money , I don't care . It's Better than that pardon

Try to read up. The old Democratic Party that supported slavery isn't the same as today's Democratic Party.

So the pardon is for what now? Asin wetin b d use?

Personally, I think they should have sued for the convictions to be overturned not just a pardon. But at least the descendants of the deceased can now walk with their heads held high in society. Imagine being looked at as a descendant of a convicted felon.

I get it. The punishment didn’t suit the crime committed. Death penalty was too heavy for the crime of rape.
They were killed for being blacks.
White rapists wouldn’t have been meted same punishment......

How on earth would 7 young men tackle, physically abuse and repeatedly rape a woman?? This woman briefly escaped, tried to run away but these men chased, teased and dragged her back to the spot. They continued in the evil.

Let’s forget the skin colour...if the state didn’t execute them, I think the traumatised lady should’ve done the ‘I Spit On Your Grave’ on them.

What kind of joy do some people derive from physically assaulting and violently abusing others sexually? She would’ve been screaming for them to let her go even begging cry cry cry angry angry angry

So is your solution to injustice to sweep it under the table and pretend that it never occurred?
