To answer the original question of this thread: Black people do not go after the blameless descendants of the africans who sold their ancestors into slavery because their is no advantage in it for them. Its much easier to keep it local and blame whitey because we have plenty of misguided people who will give them break after break out of a misguided sense of guilt.

Well, if you trace back page after page, you have "white man" claiming he shouldn't feel guilty about slavery any more. The problem is they should take the time to know something about African and slavery history as well as black US history so their emotion should be empathy instead of guilt. Big difference, me thinks. You should know more than "there was slavery in this country".
